Denial of Service White Papers

Ensuring Secure and Simple Authentication of your Enterprise Microsoft(R) Windows(R) Users

Overview Because even “strong” passwords that consist of unwieldy strings of characters are easily cracked using freely available tools, and because nearly half of all security breaches are committed from within by disgruntled or malicious employees, IT organizations throughout the enterprise are recognizing the need to deploy strong, two-factor authentication solutions to protect their Windows computers. This white paper from RSA Security Inc. explains the drawbacks of password protection as well as the benefits of its own two-factor authentication solution, RSA SecurID for Microsoft Windows.
