ESET launched a two-factor authentication (2FA) solution for businesses. It is mobile based and uses one-time password authentication to connect to the company’s VPN and Outlook Web App (OWA).

The password is randomly generated on the mobile device, which means that the physical device is necessary for each login, thus minimizing the chances of a third-party gaining access to the network.

As far as the technical specifications are concerned, on the server side there is support for Windows Server 2003, 2003 R2, 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, both 32-bit and 64-bit.

The authentication client can work on all mobile operating systems available at the moment: iOS (4.2.1 and above), Android (2.1 or higher), Windows Phone 7 or above, BlackBerry (4.3 to 7.1) and all Symbian supporting J2ME.
