The flagship identity-assurance platform, Entrust IdentityGuard authenticates mobile devices connecting to a network, encrypts and digitally signs mobile email communication, embeds identity protection into mobile applications, and monitors transactions to detect fraudulent or unauthorized activity. Entrust also offers a range of on-premise, hosted and pre-integrated mobile device management (MDM) capabilities.
Embrace the power and convenience of mobile devices as easy-to-use authenticators for physical and logical access, even as a cornerstone to a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) strategy. The Entrust IdentityGuard Mobile Smart Credential is an innovative mobile application that transforms a mobile device into a virtual smartcard, eliminating the need for physical smartcards or hardware-based one-time passcodes (OTP). It’s core to Entrust’s broad mobile security portfolio that both secures and leverages the mobile enterprise. This layered, two-pronged approach helps secure mobile identities through the use of device certificates, mobile device management (MDM) integration, as well as transparent monitoring and authentication.
Entrust integrates with the leading MDM platforms to allow organizations to deploy and leverage strong identities for mobile devices. Using this approach, Entrust digital identities are transparently deployed on mobile devices to grant secure access to corporate networks and enable secure email. With Entrust IdentityGuard MDM integration, digital certificates may be provisioned and managed through a variety of methods. Whether deployed via cloud or on-premise models, organizations may select the method that best suits their security needs, budget and environment.
With Entrust’s easy-to-use software development kit, it’s simple to scale the power of the Entrust IdentityGuard software authentication platform to secure propitiatory mobile banking applications — bringing advanced identity-based security to mobile and online channels. The SDK enables banks to seamlessly embed strong authentication into an application’s mobile session without requiring the user to input a one-time passcode (OTP). This provides a simple and secure approach to protect a user when their password has been compromised.
