Infosys, a global leader in consulting and technologyand Federal Bank, one of the leading private sector banks in India, today announced the successful integration and implementation of Finacle enabled Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) solution to strengthen the bank's existing robust authentication system for its corporate and retail Internet banking customers.
Finacle from Infosys, through its strategic partnership with CA Technologies, a leader in IT management solutions including identity and access management software, has put in place a vigorous security framework. Built on CA AuthMinder™ (formerly CA Arcot WebFort®) Versatile Authentication Server and PKI soft credential, CA ArcotID®), the platform provides two-factor authentication helping organizations provide customers with robust security and a superior user experience at a low cost of ownership.
The solution helps ensure mutual strong authentication between the bank and the end-user enabling an easy and transparent user login experience. This solution supports both retail and corporate Internet banking channels across multiple form factors like hardware token, software credential (CA ArcotID) and One Time Password (OTP). The solution also supports Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), dynamic passcodes which protects customers against various kinds of existing and emerging security threats such as phishing, man-in-the-middle, brute-force attacks, and replay attacks to name a few.
