Easy, secure access to web applications and services

Companies offering web-based services to employees and customers face the problem of making them secure.

Today, this problem is typically solved using SSL. The problem with SSL is that it typically relies on single-factor authentication of users (i.e. their username and password), it is vulnerable to phishing attacks, and it doesn’t address the problem of end-point security.

Dealing with these issues typically means adding secure tokens for authentication, supplemented by endpoint security solutions, anti-spyware and personal firewalls to protect the PC that the user is connecting from. This significantly increases the cost and complexity of the solution.

G/On provides a cost-effective alternative that can also be used to give secure access to other applications on the network. Features include:

• 2-factor user authentication
• Mutual client/server authentication to prevent phishing
• A nodeless connection to the network that is “locked to process” which prevents malware from exploiting the connection
• 256-bit AES encryption of all data, as well as checksums to safeguard against an-in-the-middle and relay attacks

G/On offers the flexibility of a USB version enabling users to connect from any PC, and a Desktop version which limits them to one PC.
