VASCO introduces their DIGIPASS for Windows

Wednesday, May 26, 2010

VASCO Data Security launched the DIGIPASS for Windows authentication solution now available to companies worldwide. The solution will specialize in providing security without impacting the end-user and is suited for securing remote access or online applications.

Features of the solution include a silent install option that authenticates each end-user with the push of a unique application, also customized interfaces to the company’s pleasing such as menus, messages, corporate colors, logos and fonts.


The DIGIPASS for Windows application generates a one-time password (OTP) after inserting a PIN-code. When using a digital signature feature, the PIN-code is required in addition to a series of data fields that will need to be entered. The e-signature will be calculated using the data field entries and the generated OTP will allow the end-user to instantly access the application.

DIGIPASS for Windows operates with other VASCO products including VACMAN Controller, IDENTIKEY and aXsGUARD Identifier. It also operates as an SDK for SaaS-vendors. [end]
