Entrust, InCard Partner to Extend Versatility of Entrust IdentityGuard Platform
2008-11-07
Agreement to provide Entrust IdentityGuard customers slim, attractive token
option
DALLAS and LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The most
versatile authentication platform on the market just became stronger. Entrust,
Inc. (NASDAQ: ENTU), in partnership with Innovative Card Technologies, Inc.
(NASDAQ: INVC), today announced a multiyear distribution agreement for the
InCard DisplayCard -- a slim, credit card-like form factor token -- to extend
the capabilities of the Entrust IdentityGuard versatile authentication platform.
"We are excited to welcome Entrust to our partner network," said Steven R.
Delcarson, CEO and President of Innovative Card Technologies. "The Entrust
IdentityGuard versatile authentication platform is a perfect fit for our
ultra-portable InCard DisplayCard. We look forward to authenticating data and
account access for clients of Entrust around the world."
Based on a credit card-like form factor, the InCard DisplayCard one-time-passcode
(OTP) token will be available later this year as a premium, upgraded token for
both new and existing customers of Entrust IdentityGuard. Entrust's versatile
authentication platform already features the most extensive range of
authenticators on the market today.
Integrated with the Entrust IdentityGuard infrastructure, the InCard DisplayCard
will be marketed to government, enterprise and financial institutions as
second-factor authenticators for a wide range of customer transactions (login
and transfers) at multiple points of access.
"The ease of use and portability of the credit card token provides our customers
with yet another scalable, flexible authenticator for use within the Entrust
IdentityGuard versatile authentication platform," said Entrust Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer Bill Conner. "We see strong demand for
portable, easy-to-use authenticators -- especially in the banking and finance
sectors -- and are eager to offer this unique, highly convenient form factor to
our customers."
The InCard DisplayCard integrates the security of a one-time-passcode token
directly into a card the size of a standard credit or debit card. At the push of
a button on the card, a one-time passcode is shown on its integrated display.
When requested during an online transaction, this number is entered into a user
interface with other information such as the user's login name and static PIN
for multifactor authentication.
The InCard DisplayCard achieved Underwriter's Laboratory (UL) certification for
safe consumer distribution. A complete list of the InCard DisplayCard's
certifications can be found at
http://www.incard.com/certifications.html.
Entrust IdentityGuard enables organizations to layer security -- according to
access requirements or the risk of a given transaction -- across diverse users
and applications. The platform's authentication options include username and
password, IP-geolocation, machine/device, questions and answers, out-of-band
one-time passcode (delivered via voice, SMS or e-mail), grid cards and a range
of one-time-passcode tokens. Entrust IdentityGuard also provides multiple
methods of supporting mutual authentication, including picture and caption
replay.
Innovative Card Technologies, Inc. [NASDAQ: INVC] was founded in 1993 to add
functions to payment cards. The company's InCard DisplayCard enables dual-factor
authentication in a convenient card form. The cards feature a screen powered by
an integrated battery, circuit and switch. This screen displays a one-time
password to verify the presence of the card during online and voice transactions
or data systems login. http://www.incard.com/.
