SteelRook GUARD is a two-factor authentication service that addresses the poor security inherent in using simple username and password combinations to manage remote access to network or Internet resources.
Rather than using the more traditional hardware token (.fob.) to accomplish this SteelRook GUARD utilizes a connectionless mobile telephone application (not SMS) to provide the unique, one-time pass-key to compliment the username and password combination.
Using the mobile telephone, and providing the service as a managed service makes SteelRook GUARD a low-cost option without compromising on security.
Organizations implementing SteelRook GUARD require no additional hardware, software, application maintenance or support as the service integrates seamlessly into the existing login process.
