* Javelin Strategy & Research, 2005 Identity Fraud Survey Report: 9.3 million people in the US were victims of identity fraud in 2004. Identity fraud cost US$52.6 billion (US$47.6 billion to businesses, US$5 billion in consumer out-of-pocket expenses). Supposedly 3.25 million people a year found that someone had used their name to open an account, obtain medical care or rent accommodation, with existing accounts of a further 6 million people being compromised.

* “Forgery incidents are still occurring continuously with a slight increase compared to the previous quarter. A total of 48 incidents were received compared to 35 in the previous quarter, which represents a 37.1% increase. Forgery, Harassment incidents continued to increase and malicious code incidents had increased significantly compared to the previous quarter.”

CROSS-INDUSTRY Solutions

Regardless of the industry, almost any enterprise requires IT security, especially in preserving the integrity of online networks. DynaPIN would ease worries among e-consumers and may help boost e-commerce, online applications and payment gateways. Gaming portals, Intellectual property repositories, remote access, Web E-mail and Internet connectivity services… are just some initiatives that would benefit from added security.

Backend Security Features

Only you will have sole access to the DynaPIN Generation Algorithm (the module that generates the DynaPIN). Not even the vendor can access it. In addition, with a configurable Alphanumeric Character Pool, you can add and remove characters to further distinguish your pool.

The Advantage of Multi Factor Authentication

Think your customers are safe with a single static sign-in? Hardly. Cybercriminals are exploiting the single PIN or password as it only represents one factor in the authentication criteria. Your security is now a vulnerability.

But penetration is almost impossible with DynaPIN’s multi-factor authentication (multi-factor) architecture:

What you know – a static password or serial number.
What you have – a randomly generated pin delivered to a handphone, PDA (via SMS) or DynaCARD. Each pin is valid for only one authentification event.
What you are – next generation, biometric authentification – thumbprint, iris scan, etc.
Based on a challenge and response system, the system queries the user for a static password and a dynamically generated pin.
Already possessing the static password, the user requests for a number/code to be sent to his handheld device, DynaCARD or Self Service kiosk.
Once both static password and the DynaPIN are obtained, the user has a One Time Password (OTP). The user enters the OTP for authentication and once approved, is free to execute the desired transaction be it e-commerce, internet banking, access to restricted data, networks and websites.
Simple, easy and efficient! And safer! As the delivery of the DynaPIN and the return of the OTP are transmitted via separate networks, it is virtually impossible for non-authorized users to capture both codes.

Cost Effectiveness

Flexible, robust yet low investment footprint.

DynaPIN leverages on common end-user hardware such as handphones. You don’t have to purchase special tokens or devices thus providing tremendous savings. No additional client-side software or special hardware is required. The system easily integrates within existing authorisation architectures.

Offering further cost savings, DynaPIN allows for flexible licensing packages:
