San Francisco, California, 6 Sept, 2007
ARX, Inc. (Algorithmic Research), a global provider of standards-based electronic signatures, digital signatures, and information assurance solutions, and Swivel Secure Ltd, the tokenless two-factor authentication software company, announced a global technology, marketing and sales alliance to help customers complete approval signature processes effectively and with a higher level of security.
Through this partnership, joint customers will be able to expedite data capture processes, improve internal controls and with greatly enhanced authentication of the whole process.
"The integration between our two solutions will ensure the delivery of a highly secure digital signature solution, improved internal controls and enhanced compliance with regional and industry-specific regulations thanks to CoSign," said Fraser Thomas, Director of Business Development at Swivel.
"There is a huge potential for multi-factor authentication worldwide. In the US alone, only 50% of banks are ready to roll out with government mandated two-factor authentication, according to Celent. PINsafe, coupled with ARX’s innovative and easy to use CoSign, will have the potential to make huge inroads into this market," adds Thomas.
ARX’s CoSign is a non-forgeable, simple-to-use, digital-signature solution that is tightly integrated with PINsafe, Swivel’s award winning tokenless two-factor authentication software. The joint solution enables Swivel customers to digitally sign documents, records, files, forms, and other electronic transactions.
