VPN security equipment ZyXEL

ZyWALL OTPv2 System, 5 Unit Pack The ZyXEL One-Time Password (OTP) Solutions adopt two-factor authentication to strengthen the identification check and to prevent unauthorized access or theft to confidential data. ZyXEL’s OTP Solutions include both physical and software generators: the ZyWALL OTPv2 and OTPv2 mobile token (OTP-MOBI). The ZyWALL OTPv2 is a compact, portable OTP authenticator, while the OTPv2 mobile token (OTP-MOBI) is a software application running on mobile devices to be used in combination of a password to empower employees, customers and partners to securely access data anytime, anywhere.

The ZyWALL OTPv2 and OTPv2 mobile token (OTP-MOBI), along with the SafeWord 2008 management application, can be easily integrated with the entire range of ZyWALL USG security products to extend the safety protection of authentication to any site. The SafeWord 2008 is a network security application residing on the central network, while the ZyXEL OTP Solutions are operated on client devices. Together, they provide a highly robust and universal mechanism to protect network resources in the authentication processes of LAN, Web and Outlook Web App (OWA) applications.

Seamless authentication protection for remote access

The starting point of security is to ensure that only authorized people can remotely access the protected network applications and resources. However, given enough time for attempts, it’s relatively easy for unauthorized intruders to crack a static password. With one-time password authentication, the risk can be significantly reduced by constant alternation of the combinations.

Turn mobile devices into powerful authenticators (OTP-MOBI)

In today’s evolving business environments, employees would use smart phones, tablets and other mobile devices to access network applications. In the mobile trend, businesses must face the challenge keeping track of the increasing range of end-point devices and managing controls of mobile users who access corporate resources such as Web portals, cloud applications and sensitive resources. The ZyWALL OTPv2 mobile token (OTP-MOBI), a new OTP solution, is ZyXEL’s answer to the trend. Powered by SafeNet, the OTPv2 mobile token (OTP-MOBI) is a software-based two-factor authenticator combining secured access checks with the convenience of one-time passwords generated on mobile devices. With one-click installation of the smart phone app, the mobile assets can be effectively protected by the authenticating mechanism.

Leveraging the entire USG platform

With the field-deployed ZyWALL USGs, administrators can extend the authentication management on premise or on remote sites by quickly installing SafeWord 2008 in the server area. The seamless integration of SafeWord 2008 and Microsoft infrastructure makes it simple to deploy two-factor authentication for VPNs, while the strengthened remote access protection can cover various applications such as IPSec, SSL VPN connection and administrator login on USG devices.

Standard-compliant solution with effortless integration
