Wave Delivers Secured Credentials for Modern Access Control

Excerpts:

"The user has no knowledge of device authentication credentials, and that effectively eliminates the problem of phishing or social engineering hacks that trick the user into inputting access information," Mr. Sprague continued. "With Wave, customers have the full support for machines running Windows 7, and soon Windows 8, to modernize their network architecture to one based on device identity."

Through the use of Wave's ERAS, IT can deploy domain credentials to the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), a security chip on the motherboard of most PCs. This step simplifies the deployment process, and adds security for the credential, as TPM-secured credentials are immune to many well-known attacks.

In addition to offering greater security for DirectAccess, ERAS help protect credentials for networks running Cisco or Juniper network remote access solutions.

The FINRA article helps to highlight the above bolded quote from Steven Sprague and one must wonder how it is that Wave's technology doesn't appear to be flourishing?!?! Phishing is still a BIG problem and Wave VSC 2.0 and Wave ERAS could make it so that it is not!! Rather than educating employees on recognizing phishing, that money could be better spent buying a solution to stop phishing in Wave VSC 2.0 and Wave ERAS!!!
