The Department of Homeland Security has tasked IceWEB to provide "Strong Authentication Technology" for the agency's internal networks. "Strong authentication technology," said James Bond, Chief Technology Officer for IceWEB, "increases security by combining something the user knows (their username and PIN) with something they have (a randomly-generated two-factor authentication token passcode). By requiring users to provide both the PIN and passcode, strong authentication systems help to ensure data are only available to authorized users. Passwords are the weakest link in information security. Clients are aggravated by strong password policies that force constant change and difficult passwords, but not having those policies is not an option. Two-factor authentication technology is a great solution. It has become clear that the standard user name/password combination is not sufficient for determining the identity of someone attempting to access private information." John R. Signorello, Chairman and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of IceWEB said, "Our recent acquisition of True North Solutions Federal Systems Group and the integration of their operation into our IceWEB SG division is producing revenue faster than expected. The addition of staff and premier business partners such as F5 Networks Inc. are quickly helping IceWEB establish ourselves as the "go to" vendor for U.S. Government agencies seeking to fulfill mission critical network and data-access security needs."
