need a second authentication factor?
...YOU ALREADY HAVE IT!!!
Your company needs to provide two-factor authentication. You are worried about the implications of purchasing traditional TOKENS.
THE PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL TOKENS
Traditional tokens mean additional costs in the authentication infrastructure. The most important cost is the price of the token itself, and subsequent replacement costs.
Since the token is an additional device, it is necessary for the user to carry it with him. However, many users forget it since it is used only a few times a day.
Users need a different token for every website or network they wish to access.
Traditional tokens do not protect the user against “man-in-the-middle” attacks.
Token management (inventories, delivery, management, final disposal, etc) generate
additional costs to the authentication infrastructure.
