Card technology vs token technology
This is a tough question in any corporate environment that is addressed more often than not. What are the cost factors between the two offers? Which is the most convenient and addresses all the security levels that are required? What are the capabilities and how user-friendly is the technology? Can it integrate with current and future systems?
Condyn, distributor for Rainbow Technologies in Africa, has identified these areas and analysed the current problems that corporate clients face today. We have now developed an additional solution on the iKey 1000 USB token which will address these issues in every corporate environment. In the past, the only way to deal with physical and logical access security on computers was by using smart cards and appropriate card readers, an expensive technology especially for large corporations.
The question that comes to mind is: what if the card, which contains company details and often personal details, is lost? Today physical access and logical access is converging and if we fail to address these issues, we will always have a problem with unauthorised people gaining access to buildings and in the same way also access privileged data.
