Anti-Lock Brake Systems Manufacturer Grants Employees Remote Access to Critical Systems Via VeriSign Unified Authentication

Publisher's description

Staff on business trips or vacation needed remote access to Shanghai Automotive Brake Systems Co., Ltd. (SABS)'s critical applications - an activity not permitted by the existing security system. SABS chose to implement VeriSign Unified Authentication and today, many employees have been given One-Time Password (OTP) tokens and can access SABS's SAP R/3 enterprise resource planning system, as well as the company's intranet when they are away from the office. The challenge was that traveling staff needed secure remote access to the company's intranet and critical ERP systems. SABS deployed VeriSign Unified Authentication that is cost effective and has minimal impact on SABS's existing systems - imposing only a nominal amount of incremental network traffic.

Business agility is one of the key differentiators in today's market — indeed, a company's future-centricity may soon become the sole differentiator as markets and customers adopt new ways of doing business. Constant change is essential to business success, and it begins with people. Business and HR leaders must work to overcome employees' natural change-aversion and instill a culture of change from the grass roots up. Change initiatives require engagement and motivation, and this is built on alignment and leadership — alignment from top to bottom ensures that employees have a line of sight from their own work processes to the overall success of the company, and leadership ties every change to the company's broader vision and to each individual's personal growth. HR is an essential part of this process: HR leaders are the company's guide to the people issues that make the difference between stagnation and a truly agile business organization.

The Latest Advancements in SSL Technology

Organisations that rely on Internet transactions have learnt that a reliable and secure Internet is necessary for fortifying consumer confidence, boosting the percentage of completed transactions, and enriching the "bottom line".

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is the World Standard for Web Security. SSL Technology confronts the potential problems of unauthorised viewing of confidential information, data manipulation, data hijacking, phishing, and other insidious Web site scams, by encrypting sensitive data so that only authorised recipients can read it.

Due to recent advances in SSL technology, there is a variety of different kinds of SSL. In this paper, we will discuss some of these advances, including Server Gated Cryptography (SGC) and Extended Validation SSL (EV SSL), to help you decide which would be best for your organisation.

Maximising Site Visitor Trust Using Extended Validation SSL

Web business faces a crisis in confidence. Trust in site security is declining, and in increasing numbers consumers are scaling back their online transactions or opting out entirely, resulting in many online retail businesses being less effective than they could be.

With the introduction of a new kind of SSL Certificate, online companies will now be able to definitively demonstrate their identity to customers and customers will be able to confirm this identity before trusting sites. This opportunity comes as a result of the greatest development in the Web’s secure backbone in over 10 years. The new certificates, called Extended Validation (EV) SSL Certificates, are the first since the technology’s origin more than a decade ago.

This whitepaper provides insight into EV SSL certificates, which can facilitate online commerce in all its forms by increasing visitor confidence in legitimate sites and greatly reducing the effectiveness of phishing attacks.
