Modern two-factor solutions have evolved to support new, complex technology models that change how we use data, including cloud computing and Bring Your Own Device. But there are many different methods, integration issues and security concerns cropping up in the market. With such diversity of vendors, it's easy for IT security decision-makers to get confused about which is right for their firm.
This guide looks at some of the key areas of differentiation between two-factor authentication solutions and provides criteria for evaluating technologies and vendors.
In this guide, you will learn how to evaluate a solution based on:
Security - Does your solution reduce risks, and can it provide visibility into your environment?
Strategic Business Initiatives - Does your solution support cloud, mobile and BYOD initiatives? And can it fulfill compliance?
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) - Does your solution provide more upfront value, or more hidden costs?
Resources Required - Determine what kind of resources it’ll take to deploy and provision your users.
