Since its inception, more than 15 leading financial institutions have selected Intelligent Authentication to meet the needs for strong, layered authentication and an easy, reliable implementation.

 online banking users. Improving on the traditional authentication mechanism of a user name and password, Intelligent Authentication examines and tracks multiple patterns of online banking behavior and various non-personal attributes of the online banking user to determine when it is necessary to block or challenge suspicious visitors. This multi-layered authentication technique is virtually transparent to the end user and results in a user-friendly, non-intrusive experience while also ensuring visitors to the Web site are legitimate. Intelligent Authentication is a 'zero footprint' solution, requiring no distribution of hardware, software or tracking objects such as cookies to the end-users' computer. Intelligent Authentication's low-disruption design provides the power of behavior-based strong authentication with the simplicity and ease of use associated with user names and passwords, combining the best of both worlds -- usability and security.

"With this in mind, we leveraged our extensive, real-world experience in building, hosting, and securing online banking systems for leading financial institutions to create an innovative security solution that not only meets the stringent requirements of government regulators and financial institutions charged with protecting the assets and identities of consumers, but which also maintains the usability standards that consumers expect from their online banking site. Intelligent Authentication strikes that critical balance by providing a strong online authentication solution without disrupting the convenient online experience."
