New Standard Replacement for all Tokens, Passwords and PINs to Debut at Infosecurity Europe 2011

Pattern-Based Authentication Comes of Age with "Pin+"

(28.03.11) - A system which will allow the information security industry to ditch passwords, PINs and tokens is to debut at this year’s Infosecurity Europe Show. "pin+" utilises the power of matrix-pattern authentication (MPA) to generate one-time codes without hardware tokens or card readers, and is arguably the most exciting advance in computer security since the invention of tokens over 20 years ago.

pin+ brings standardisation and essential comfort/familiarity for users. Its highly recognisable (trademarked) shield-shaped matrix offers ease-of-use combined with high security, thanks to its unique 6X6X6X6 format (6X6 matrix, 6-digit one-time codes, using only numbers 1-6).

Powered by new patent-pending IPR from Winfrasoft, pin+ offers users a raft of powerful new features. "In pin+ the basic concept of extracting one-time codes using patterns on a matrix of squares has been honed into a powerful tool for real-world use wherever strong authentication of individuals is required," said Jonathan Craymer, managing director of PinPlus Limited. "With the launch of pin+ Matrix Pattern Authentication (MPA) has truly come of age."

pin+ offers:-

· consistent standardised look and feel (all applications)

· vastly increased mathematical strength

· true one-time codes

· superior protection

· improved resistance to reverse engineering

· static PIN option

· fast/consistent implementation.
