Salt Mobile Tokens


Salt Mobile Token solutions leverage the ubiquity, computing power and familiar form factor of the mobile phone handset to provide a convenient, secure and “always at arms reach” solution to second factor identity authentication and digital signing needs.

Salt Mobile Tokens (243KB)

Salt Mobile Tokens implement the full characteristics of specialised two factor tokens and specifically:

  • Application level PIN based access control to ensure rightful possession of the authentication device, a feature missing on the overwhelming majority of second factor devices shipped to date globally
  • Onboard cryptography for message encryption and generation of challenge response or digital signature for true end to end security.

Plus

  • Streamlined LOW COST high assurance provisioning and customer activation of the authentication service not available in specialised token based solutions.
  • Salt Mobile Tokens operate independently of the underpinning mobile network provider and are fully integrated with leading authentication services to provide a cost effective solution to identity authentication particularly for large consumer bases.
  • Salt Mobile Tokens can be configured in a number of ways to meet the specific needs of the business application.
