Secure Computing Corporation, from the RSA Conference 2000, today announced first customer availability of SafeWord, the leading scalable authentication solution in the industry, on the Linux operating system (OS). Traditionally, SafeWord running on the UNIX platform has a history of being the highest performing, most robust and scalable authentication solution available. SafeWord v5.1.1 will bring those benefits to the Linux platform providing enterprise and service provider customers the safe secure environment needed for e-commerce and e-business.

Secure Computing's SafeWord v5.1.1 positively identifies users connecting to Web and other applications. It provides a portable authentication (strong or medium) solution based on the organization's needs. By providing a username and password, either dynamic or fixed, generated by a SafeWord token, external users are granted access only to the specific resources designated by the organization's security policy. Once authorized, users can only access Web sites and applications as they are individually authorized and all activities are monitored for auditing purposes. SafeWord v5.1.1 interoperates with the widest range of firewalls, communication servers and virtual private network (VPN) servers via RADIUS and supports all major host/operating system platforms. It scales to millions of users and is built to be fault tolerant.
