Understanding WiKID

Overview
A brief review of the WiKID Strong Authentication Architecture.
Development & Security Philosophy
A description of our technical goals in developing WiKID.
WiKID Strong Authentication Server
The heart of the systems is the WiKID Strong Authentication server.
WiKID Token Clients
While stealing a WiKID token is no different than stealing a hardware token or an ATM card, you should treat your WiKID token client as you would any private cryptographic key or as you would your ATM card.
Securing the one-time passcodes
WiKID uses a cryptographically secure combination of public key and single-use AES key cryptography to secure the transmission of the one-time passcode.
