Many corporations are being targeted by bad actors but one of the primary concerns of the federal government are the targeted attacks on sensitive industries such as the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) , Energy Production and Finance. These highly sensitive industries need state-of-the-art identification technology and our Federated Validators help ensure that the communication isn’t victim to a man-in-the-middle attack. Our agents communicate to validators in order to share confidence value with the users. These validators can be in the cloud for organizations needing our standard security offering, but highly sensitive industries can employ private validators in their own data centers or Private MPLS or SONET rings. Furthermore, we can delineate traffic between these validators to meet the organization’s security policies. For instance, full communication can occur between an organization’s many sites but only one-way authentication is permitted between an organization and their strategic vendors.
