VASCO Data Security International Inc. announced that Belgian cloud service provider Thinfactory has added its DIGIPASS as a Service to its product range for the disposal of its end-users on its online Web store.

Thinfactory’s cloud services are gathered on Cloud Plaza, an online selling platform where customers and resellers can buy applications for desktops, laptops and smart phones. And DIGIPASS as a Service will be available on Thinfactory’s Cloud Plaza Web store. Cloud service resellers can purchase the service through that platform. VASCO still takes care of the authentication process, whereas Thinfactory deals with client support.


DIGIPASS as a Service is VASCO’s cloud based authentication service that makes use of VASCO’s proprietary authentication technology. It allows companies like Thinfactory to focus on their core businesses as VASCO takes care of all the aspects of securing a network or applications.

VASCO is expanding its DIGIPASS as a Service offering. In a first phase, the service for B-to-B was launched. Recently, VASCO has started the second phase, aiming at the B-to-E-market, in which employees are the end-users. Eventually, in the third phase, VASCO will focus on the B-to-C-market, planning to secure typical online consumer applications, such as e-gaming, e-commerce or social network accounts. [end]
