PKI-based Identity Theft Protection
Entrust TruePass makes it possible to confirm the identity of individuals that are visiting and using a Web portal. It also uses transparent, end-to-end persistent encryption to protect user identities and information with an extra layer of encryption above and beyond SSL. As soon as the user submits data, it is encrypted before leaving the workstation. The encryption is done transparently without the user having to install any software or deal with any additional user dialogues.
Entrust TruePass is easy to deploy and allows users mobility and flexibility to access a Web portal from any location and on a variety of devices. Supporting a broad range of authentication methods, including Entrust IdentityGuard, tokens and smart cards, Entrust TruePass makes it possible to achieve a positive identification of users and protect their identities while connecting to your Web portal.
