March 31, 2010 – PhoneFactor announced today that Network Products Guide has named PhoneFactor’s Biometric Voice Authentication service a winner of the 2010 Product Innovation Award. The award recognizes vendors with innovative and ground-breaking products that are bringing essential changes and are setting the bar higher for others in information technology.
PhoneFactor’s multi-factor authentication solution is simple, secure, and significantly less expensive to set up and maintain than other multi-factor options. PhoneFactor places an automated call to the user to verify their login. The user answers and presses # (or enters a PIN) to authenticate. With the addition of voice biometrics, the user’s voiceprint can be verified during the authentication call as well, taking the cost and complication out of biometric authentication.
“To succeed, companies need to see innovation not as a one time errand but as something that has to be continuously evolved and improved upon,” says Rake Narang, Editor-In-Chief, Network Products Guide. “Innovative products such as PhoneFactor are bringing critical advancements to the area of multi-factor authentication.”
“PhoneFactor is proud to be recognized by Network Products Guide,” said Steve Dispensa, CTO, PhoneFactor. “Product innovation is key to our continued commitment to provide multi-factor solutions that address today’s security challenges. The extension of the PhoneFactor product line to include voiceprint capabilities demonstrates that commitment.”
