SMS PASSCODE Version 4.0: The industry’s broadest Virtual Desktop Support for Citrix, Microsoft and VMware. Also support for Microsoft TMG/ISA

Four Good Reasons For SMS PASSCODE^® Version 4:

1.    The broadest Citrix XenDesktop, XenApp and Access Gateway two-factor authentication via SMS solution
2.    The broadest Microsoft Windows, Web and VDI two-factor authentication solution including single sign-on
3.    The world’s first integrated SMS authentication solution for VMware View Portal and Client VDI
4.    Industry leading Microsoft ISA/TMG and Web protection solution

When an IT organization deploys a virtualized desktop infrastructure, all users essentially get a central “virtual” desktop that is accessed remotely. The benefit is easier user PC management but the trade-off is that all the IT resources including the PC, applications and data are accessible if the users identity is compromised. This fact drives the need for increased two-factor authentication for all users. The award winning SMS PASSCODE^® Version 4 introduces an easy to use yet more secure protection compared with legacy hardware based two-factor authentication.

Secure and easy Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp access The Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp solutions have a range of access methods that are supported including a seamless integration into the web interface portal access and the range of access gateways. No other two-factor authentication solution supports equally seamless integration!
Extensive Microsoft Remote Desktop Services protection Microsoft has a set of access methods spanning from direct login via Windows XP, Vista and 7 login (Gina and Credentials Provider) or via the Remote Desktop Web and Gateway services. Support is announced for all of these access scenarios including support for single-sign on configurations.
World’s first SMS authentication for VMware View Virtual Desktop SMS PASSCODE® is the first two-factor authentication via SMS provider to support the VMware View portal supporting a series of differentiated login configurations based on the user being local or remote and the virtual desktops being accessed by a given user. The solution offers a very intuitive yet differentiated virtual desktop login experience.
Microsoft ISA/TMG support In addition to the extensive VDI support, version 4 also introduces native Microsoft ISA / TMG server support for web sites and infrastructure access protection as well as Microsoft VPN support. The implementation of ISA/TMG also improves the support for Remote Desktop Web Access and single sign-on.
