wikid-in-top-10-open-source-infosec-project-list

Posted by: admin 15 years, 3 months ago

It's great to get noticed, especially when you're number 4 and the project in front of you is Sourcefire.

Recent regulatory changes have heightened interest in two-factor authentication systems for corporate security and online banking. WiKID uses open-source software and everyday cell phones, PDAs, and other handheld devices to generate one-time passwords that are as secure (and more convenient) as hardware tokens. Price: $10 per person per year and up.
I'm pretty sure that both Vyatta, and Untangle support Radius, so you could easily combine WiKID with one of the top two for a very tight, low cost, remote access security solution.

We got a nice mention at the InfoSec Conference in Orlando by Matthew Luallen, president of consulting firm Sph3r3:

“The WiKiD Strong Authentication Server is a two-factor authentication server,” said Luallen, referencing ones he thought among the most useful . Among other great security tools there for the asking are SpamAssassin, which can identify spam, Splunk for log analysis, NTop for anomaly detection, TrueCrypt for encrypting data at rest, and the penetration-testing tool BackTrack. He said all are examples of useful security tools that companies should consider securing enterprise networks.
That's good company! We'll be sending Mathew the secret prize that everyone who mentions WiKID at a conference or in an article gets. It's very special and the only way to find out what it is is, of course, to mention WiKID (positively) in a speach or article.

One reason I haven't been posting is that I have been adding some Flash demos to the website.

wikid-strong-authentication-and-laws-of-identity

Posted by: admin 15 years, 3 months ago

Last week, I blogged about the flexibility of WiKID. Today, I want to apply that thinking to Kim Cameron’s Laws of Identity. How does WiKID’s flexibility support the Laws? Obviously, WiKID would only be a part of the identity system – the authentication piece. The question is how does WiKID enable this metatsystem to comply with the laws.
