SurePass, a software and hardware security company specializing in two-factor authentication solutions, announced the availability of a comprehensive security solution to verify and protect the identity of users of cloud and on-premises based applications.

User identification authentication and security has become of increased importance both given the growing acceptance of cloud based or on-demand applications, the company said. These cloud service provides are not responsible for the validation or protection of a user’s identity which leaves consumers, financial institutions, enterprises, and government agencies vulnerable to cyberattacks, identity theft, and fraud.

SurePass provides strong authentication or verification of identity using a two-factor authentication technology with a One Time Passcode (Dynamic Passwords) to confirm and secure the user’s identity.  These dynamic passwords are generated using an array of devices ranging from free mobile apps, SMS messages, and (optionally) sophisticated display cards all working together. SurePass supports industry standard Single Sign On (SSO) which allow users to maintain one identity across all Cloud applications.
