Ohio Finance Agency selects DIGIPASS as secure e-commerce solution

Tuesday, May 4, 2010

VASCO Data Security’s DIGIPASS for Web solution and VACMAN Controller have been chosen by The Ohio Finance Agency (OHFA) for its Lender Online application. OHFA was seeking a secure access solution to protect the hacking of financial data in their Lender Online portal.

The Lender Online portal, designed by Emphasys Software, is a tool that enables participating lenders to enter reservations, check the status of loans, download reports and pre-filled program forms, read bulletins, check the allocation status, and view updates and special program announcements.


The DIGIPASS for Web solution is simple to implement and to use requiring no separate hardware and no additional software to install on the user’s computers. The web solution is different in its flexibility and user-friendliness designed to replace fixed passwords with strong authentication without affecting the end-user. [end]
