Results for tag: "Authentication Token"

Authentication Token is a type of IT security technology used to authenticate a user's identity. It is a physical device, such as a card or a key fob, that generates a one-time code or password that is used to verify the user's identity. This code is then used to access a secure system or application. Authentication tokens are used to provide an additional layer of security beyond a username and password. They are often used in conjunction with two-factor authentication, which requires the user to provide two pieces of evidence to prove their identity. The authentication token market is a rapidly growing sector of the IT security industry. It is driven by the need for organizations to protect their data and systems from unauthorized access. The market is expected to continue to grow as organizations become increasingly aware of the need for strong authentication measures. Some companies in the authentication token market include Gemalto, RSA Security, Yubico, and Vasco. Show Less Read more
