Yubico and CloudPassage Bring Easy and Secure Two-Factor Authentication to Cloud Servers
Grazed from CloudPassage. Author: PR Announcement.
CloudPassage, the leading cloud server security provider, required a strong two-factor authentication mechanism for the CloudPassage Halo platform to protect access to servers in public clouds. Halo users needed a fast, effective, and reliable solution that could be deployed as quickly as Halo itself. After evaluating other authentication solutions, the company chose the YubiKey, Yubico’s unique one-time password (OTP) USB key, as the centerpiece of the Halo GhostPorts two-factor authentication solution.
CloudPassage selected the YubiKey authentication solution for its robust design without a battery and its ease of management. The USB key is a key component of Halo GhostPorts, a security feature that enables GhostPorts users to protect remote access to cloud servers with powerful, dynamic network access control using two-factor authentication.
