The Rise of the Virtual PKI Credential
With #remote work becoming the new norm for many companies, organizations need to secure their employee’s #work-from-home network. Identity Access Management (#IAM) secures all remote networks and enables employees to secure and easily access the data they need for their roles. At present, Hardware-based Public Key Infrastructure (HW-based PKI) is the most #secure and reliable technology to mitigate threats to sensitive information using two-factor (#2FA) or multi-factor authentication (#MFA).
In most enterprises, the trend is toward fewer and fewer laptops with embedded smart card readers and tablets without USB ports. The deployment of physical cards may require additional logistical constraints and during recent months many organizations faced challenges around hardware shortages due to the global #pandemic. Now, Virtual Smart Cards (VSCs) act as physical credential replacements, enabling 2FA on a device without requiring extra hardware.
