Caroline Godfrey, Chief Security Officer of WidePoint Cybersecurity Solutions Corporation, stated: “User IDs and passwords in combination with one-time passcodes (2-factor authentication) to personal phones are recognized as antiquated solutions and the genesis for malware or ransomware attacks. WidePoint’s multi-phased deployment approach allows for the smoothest, non-intrusive deployment by starting with Tier 1 IT staff, then moving to critical users, teachers, servers, students and devices. Securing schools with PKI, the strongest authentication solution used by the U.S. Department of Defense and civilian federal government agencies, is a significant step forward and game changer for the school community.”
