Using other authentication factors

Aside from your password, you can use another authentication factor such as RFID, fingerprint, and smart card to ensure strong authentication for your organization.

Using RFID authentication
RFID devices have no internal power source. RFID devices transmit radio signals from the radio frequency signals they receive, and are only active when a reader is nearby to power them. The lack of an internal power source enables RFID devices to be small enough to be embedded into thin identification cards.
Using fingerprint authentication
The fingerprint identification system recognizes your fingerprint as an authentication factor. The fingerprint reader translates your fingerprint into encrypted codes, which logs you on to AccessAgent.
Using smart card authentication
A smart card is a pocket-sized card that has an embedded microprocessor. Smart cards can do cryptographic operations, store, and process the digital credentials of the users securely.
Using hybrid smart card authentication
A hybrid smart card must be dual-chip. It consists of an embedded PKI microprocessor and an RFID chip with contact and contactless interface.
