Organizations today increasingly require flexible and scalable authentication solutions that enable them to secure user identities, extend protection to highly sensitive transactions, and evolve quickly to address new environments, from mobile to virtual.

Gartner's 2012 Magic Quadrant recognizes SafeNet's leadership position in Authentication.

According to the Gartner Magic Quadrant report, "a provider in the user authentication market delivers on-premises software/hardware or a cloud based service that makes real-time authentication decisions and can be integrated with one or more enterprise systems to support one or more use cases. Where appropriate to the authentication methods supported, a provider in the user authentication market also delivers client-side software or hardware used by end users in those real-time authentication decisions". Gartner estimates "the overall growth in the market by customers to be approximately 30 percent year over year". Enterprise interest in OTP methods, "remains high; however, as has already been noted, Gartner has seen a significant shift in preference from traditional hardware tokens to phone-based authentication methods".

SafeNet's authentication portfolio includes:

• Certificate-based (PKI), OTP, software, hybrid, out-of-band (OOB) authenticators

• Centralized management that enables organizations to streamline deployment and administration, unify policies, and improve control and visibility across the entire authentication scheme

• Innovative solutions that enable secure access from mobile devices

• Identity federation and SSO for SaaS applications
