Unmatched Simplicity, Manageability
Efficiently bringing together users, authentication devices, policies
and applications continues to be a significant challenge for enterprise
security. In answering this need, Aladdin's TMS 2.0 provides a solution
that links all components into a single automated and fully configurable
system designed to meet stringent regulatory compliance requirements. TMS
2.0, featuring an open, standard-based architecture and full integration
with Microsoft Active Directory, now offers organizations new, powerful
features, including:
-- Enhanced scalability through a three-tier, Web-based architecture
-- New and improved Web-based user self-service management tools and
administrator management site
-- Handling of exceptions such as employee-on-the-road lost token
scenarios
-- Enhanced reporting capabilities with built-in reports and support for
external reporting tools
-- Full auditing capabilities
-- Enhanced support for eToken devices: new eToken NG-FLASH connector for
flash memory partitioning and management of the auto-run partition in
eToken NG-FLASH devices; support for the upcoming eToken PASS (OTP
authentication device)
Answers Regulatory Compliance Requirements
TMS 2.0 was developed to meet regulatory requirements for data security
and facilitate the organization's compliance efforts. With regulatory
compliance at the forefront of organizations' concerns, TMS 2.0 stands as a
powerful management system that enables organizations to track user
authentication and token usage. Equipped with full auditing and reporting
capabilities, a new role-based authorization mechanism for controlling TMS
access, and encryption of user data all ensure the TMS enables compliance
with regulations.
Offers New Support for Managed Security Services Providers
Following the growing trend of service providers offering security
services, TMS 2.0 includes full, enhanced support tailored to their
specific needs. TMS 2.0 includes role-based access to TMS, answering both
the security and usability requirements of managed security services
providers. Built-in encryption abilities allow the encryption of user data
using separate keys for different groups of users, while the ability to
manage a number of domains from a single Web-based interface also
streamlines solution management.
"Selecting the most fitting authentication devices is the first step,
while properly managing them is the second, perhaps most vital requirement
for a successful deployment," said Shlomi Yanai, vice president of the
Aladdin eToken Business Unit. "With the introduction of Aladdin's TMS 2.0,
we are pleased to provide organizations and managed services providers with
an unmatched solution that completely and efficiently answers their
authentication solution management needs, as well as ever-important
compliance requirements. TMS 2.0 serves as yet another example of Aladdin's
leadership in the strong authentication market, accompanying our
award-winning eToken authentication devices."
TMS 2.0 supports a comprehensive range of security applications such as
network logon, VPN, Web access, one-time password (OTP) authentication,
secure email, data encryption, and many others. Fully integrated with
Microsoft Active Directory, Aladdin TMS 2.0 enables administrators to
manage tokens in the same way they manage users from within Active
Directory, transparently linking token management with user organizational
policies.
