Trustwave MyIdentity

Trustwave MyIdentity is an on-demand replacement for traditional token-based authentication systems at a fraction of the cost, offering anytime, anywhere authentication support.

For organizations seeking a two-factor authentication solution that eliminates the hassles and costs of a tokenbased system

Token-Based Authentication: Costly and Time-Consuming


For more than 20 years, hardware-based tokens have been the standard for secure two-factor authentication solutions. Unfortunately, these traditional solutions require an organization to spend a significant amount of time and money issuing and managing tokens for employees with remote access via a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Trustwave MyIdentity is a two-factor authentication solution that combines cloud-based delivery and self-service administration with flexible authentication methods. With low, per user fees, MyIdentity is easy to provision and inexpensive to maintain, supporting any use case including: network or application authentication from the corporate desktop, remote locations, employee laptops and mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets.

With MyIdentity, customers can mix and match authentication methods to support all users in any scenario from the corporate network to remote locations and mobile devices. And, regardless of authentication method used, MyIdentity customers experience just one flat per user fee.
