CallingID Presents its FFIEC Compliant Strong
Authentication Platform at the BAI Multi-Factor Authentication Forum
Washington, D.C., June 15th 2006 - CallingID, a leading provider of strong
authentication and safe browsing solutions, presented its Safety Seal platform
at the BAI Multi-Factor Authentication Forum. This unobtrusive, easy to
implement, strong authentication platform enables banks and credit unions to
comply with all aspects of the FFIEC guidelines without adding complexity to
the user's experience.
Safety Seal is a simple platform that does not require any hardware or software
to be installed on the client's machine. It uses its patent pending layered
security to protect users against Trojans, Spyware and Man-in-the-Middle
attacks. It allows users to keep their standard username and password login
process and requires only minimal support. Additional authentication factors
are automatically requested only in cases where the user's login is suspect.
Although no client software installation is required, users are encouraged to
install and use the CallingID Toolbar to benefit from safe Internet browsing
free of all types of Internet Fraud.
"We listened to our customers and built a platform that meets their needs. By
combining protection from all types of Internet Fraud and online crime with an
automatic risk management and policy enforcement engine we've met all the
requirements for the strong authentication solution the FFIEC defined in its
guidelines" said Yoram Nissenboim, CallingID CEO. "CallingID succeeds in
protecting users from becoming fraud victims without adding complexity to the
login process. Integration with existing web sites' authentication systems is
smooth and simple".
Banks and credit unions adding CallingID Safety Seal to their servers now have
a way to considerably reducing the risk and concerns that their clients have of
being scammed, thus addressing their reluctance to conduct business over the
Internet. The clients feel that the institution has taken the necessary steps
to secure them, and since no complex procedure is added, they can significantly
increase their business activities with the institution.
