OPSEC Integration
The integration is based upon the standard RADIUS protocol.
When employees use their PC, they want to read e-mail, use software and documents, access files on the corporate network, work with applications and access websites. With the workforce becoming more mobile, the employees want to do all this anywhere and any time. SSL VPN technology ensures the access to the corporate network. At the same time IT administrators need to make sure that corporate resources are accessed in a secure way while working from home or being on the road.
VASCO and Check Point
DIGIPASS® strong authentication adds an additional security layer to remote access, preventing unauthorized users to access the corporate network assets. By adding DIGIPASS strong authentication to Check Point Connectra™, the customer has an easy-to-deploy remote access solution with enhanced security. Check Point Connectra™ is a remote access gateway which combines SSL VPN, IPSec VPN and intrusion prevention with centralized management and straightforward deployment. VASCO® DIGIPASS offers one-time password (OTP) technology to protect user login and ensures that only authenticated users get access.
How it works
When remotely connecting to the corporate network via Check Point Connectra™, the end-user is asked for an OTP generated by the VASCO DIGIPASS authenticator. Check Point Connectra™ will communicate with IDENTIKEY® Server, VASCO’s back-end authentication software, through RADIUS to validate the OTP. Upon successful validation of the OTP, the user is authenticated and Check Point Connectra™ will set up the SSL VPN connection.
