Do you also offer a hardware token?

Can the WiKID Server and/or Token be embedded?

Yes and Yes.

How does WiKID enable Active Directory password resets?

A password-reset domain is configured on the server with Administrator rights to reset users' passwords. When a user forgets their password, they choose the password reset domain on the WiKID client and enter their PIN. If PIN is correct, the encryption valid and the WiKID account is active, the WiKID server resets the Active Directory password to the one-time passcode and forces the user to change their password at the next login.

Will WiKID Strong Authentication work in my network?

The short answer is 'yes'. Chances are that your network devices, whether they are Cisco switches or Nortel VPN concentrators, a custom web-application or a home-baked Linux firewalls, WiKID will work out of the box. Additionally, we can add network protocols with relative ease, if you're not covered by Radius, LDAP or the other major protocols. Finally, we offer a simple API and implementations in a number of languages - Java, COM, Python, PHP and Ruby - so you can easily add two-factor authentication to your custom applications.

Can I use WiKID for two-factor authentication for GDM/XDM/Gnome/KDE login?

Most Linux services use PAM, so 'Yes'. Just configure /etc/pam.d/login to use Radius and you should be good to go.
