VASCO Data Security and SecurIT’s TrustBuilder a strong combination

SecurIT partners with IBM and VASCO Data Security to provide a solution that enables Tivoli Access Manager to use VASCO DIGIPASS authentication to secure the access to enterprise applications.

TrustBuilder and VASCO DIGIPASS

The VACMAN Controller has been integrated into TrustBuilder in order to provide seamless support for all VASCO DIGIPASS authenticators for TAM. In addi­tion, VASCO DIGIPASS-related information is included in TAM’s native LDAP user directory.

The integration between VASCO DIGIPASS and TAM supports both, dynamic and static + dynamic pass­words. It uses the VACMAN Controller API from within the TrustBuilder module to verify the password.

The solution comes with an API framework to simplify user management from any C or Java based applica­tion, hiding the complexity of dealing with multiple API’s (LDAP, TAM API, VACMAN API)

Business Benefits

Customers who have already invested in Web Access Management software solution from IBM Tivoli can now benefit from the stronger authentication mecha­nisms offered by world leader in two-factor authenti­cation, VASCO Data Security. The combined solution offers not only a high degree of integration and secu­rity, but also easy authentication migration paths for end-customers, driven by configurable business-driven policies.

The solution also allows customer to re-use the TAM native directory as store for the VASCO DIGIPASS cre­dentials, avoiding to build and managed yet another store for credentials.
