The authentication component in the Thales SafeSign product suite provides advanced authentication of users, messages, and transactions.

SafeSign Authentication Server brings power and control to identity management, user authentication, and digital signatures. It can be used on its own or with other SafeSign suite products as part of an enterprise-wide, end-to-end security solution.

It supports all your users, across every application and access channel, and enables the centralized management of authentication devices in a distributed business environment, minimizing administration and operating costs. As standard, encrypted passwords, EMV authentication, smart cards, PKI cards, soft certificates, and a wide range of tokens, including Thales SafeSign PSM and OATH are supported. Customization to support any and all authentication methods, makes integration with legacy systems, as well as future expansion, quick and easy.

But SafeSign covers more than just user authentication. It also provides a flexible signing, authenticating, and secure long-term storage solution that integrates easily into new or existing document management or transaction solutions.
