Cafesoft Partners
with VASCO to Deliver
Digipass Strong Authentication with
Cams Web Single Sign-on Software
San Diego, CA, June 21, 2006 – Cafesoft announced today that it has integrated
Cafesoft’s Cams web single sign-on software and web access management solution
with VASCO Data Security’s (Nasdaq: VDSI) Digipass strong authentication products
and VACMAN Controller software. The combined Cafesoft Cams and VASCO Digipass
solution enables companies to easily, flexibly and affordably implement web
single sign-on with one-time-passwords and digital signature strong authentication
provided using integrated VASCO Digipass and VACMAN Controller software.
“We’re excited to partner with VASCO to create a packaged strong authentication
solution,” said Gary Gwin, Cafesoft president and CEO. “Cafesoft and
VASCO have similar ease-of-use value propositions making the marriage of the
technologies a natural fit. Customers who require web single sign-on and web
access management solutions will, for the first time, have a secure, easy and
cost-effective way to implement one-time passwords and strong authentication.”
Cams makes sites more secure and manageable by centralizing web application
security policy decisions and management, rather than implementing security
within each web application or server. This centralized approach to web security
enables companies to reduce development and administration time, complexity
and costs, while improving time-to-market, site security and software life-cycle
flexibility. Cams also provides web single sign-on to eliminate the cost, risk
and pain associated with multiple user accounts and sign-ons for the same site.
The Cams service oriented architecture deploys into heterogeneous environments
with an architecture that scales for high-volume sites. The lightweight, Java-based
Cams policy server is easy-to-install and
configure in small to large enterprise environments. Cams offers an industry
leading approach to user directory integration with Microsoft Active Directory,
LDAP servers, SQL databases and more. Other product features include:
- Web single sign-on to web and J2EE application servers
- Access control based on roles (RBAC), HTTP query parameters,
database values, date/time, location and custom rules - Simplified and centralized security policy administration
- Security event logging, analysis and real-time notification
- Flexible customizations via open APIs
- Cross-platform support including Windows 2000 and 2003, Linux
and Solaris
VASCO’s Digipass enables users to generate one-time passwords, host authentication
and e-signatures that safeguard access to e-business applications, corporate
networks, and allow for more secure transactions. By using Digipass patented
technology, companies and institutions can eliminate the weakest link in any
security infrastructure: The use of static passwords that are easily stolen,
guessed, reused, or shared. A summary of key benefits for the combined solution
includes:
- Speeds deployment with a comprehensive, integrated Digipass
strong authentication and web single sign-on solution - Simplifies administration and Digipass distribution process
with dynamic user registration and management tools - Achieves low total cost of ownership throughout the web site
security and authorization token lifecycle - Improves time to market by simplifying web application
development and deployment - Scales performance through load balancing and caching
- Leverages current investments in existing enterprise and web
application infrastructures - Reduces complexity by eliminating proprietary and redundant
security systems
