Permeo Base5 Certified for RSA SecurID Authentication.

AUSTIN, Texas -- Permeo Base5 Integrates with Industry-Leading Authentication Technology to Protect Critical Information and Applications Accessed from Remote Locations

Permeo Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of on demand information security solutions for the enterprise, today announced that Permeo Base5 has received certification for RSA SecurID Authentication, an authentication platform for enterprise networks. The combined solution of industry standard authentication and Permeo Base5's information security features gives Permeo customers a more secure approach to providing employees, partners and customers remote access to critical corporate applications.

The changing needs of businesses require the extension of corporate resources to remote employees and business partners via a growing number of unmanaged devices such as employee home computers, partner and customer computers, and Internet kiosks. As a result, a reliable level of user authentication and strong endpoint security measures are imperative to prevent sensitive information leakage at controlled and uncontrolled endpoints.

RSA Security's authentication solutions remain an industry standard for organizations looking to protect their key business data assets. RSA SecurID Authentication employs multiple components to provide a two-factor authentication platform for enterprise networks. Users authenticate themselves to the network with a password or PIN as well as an "authenticator," which is typically a hardware token. This method offers a more reliable level of user authentication than reusable passwords to help positively identify users before they interact with mission-critical data and applications. With Permeo Base5, once a user is authenticated, on demand remote access and endpoint security features are enabled including keylogger detection, information controls, browser security, malware protection, and host integrity checks.

"The ability to positively identify a user and ensure that the information they access remotely is not compromised at the endpoint are both crucial factors to consider as enterprises continue to extend the network perimeter," said Mark Elliott, vice president of product management at Permeo Technologies. "As Permeo Base5 now seamlessly operates with the RSA SecurID Authentication platform, organizations have peace of mind knowing that they can grant employees and partners remote access to the corporate applications they need while satisfying compliance and information protection requirements."
