What is Two-Factor Authentication
Two-Factor Authentication is a new security solution that enhances and strengthens security by
implementing multiple factors to the authentication process that challenge and confirm the users
identities before they can gain access to the network. There are several factors that are used to
validate the users to make that you are who you said you are. These factors are:

Something you know – for example, your password or your PIN
Something you have – for example, a token with generated passcode that is either 6 to 8 digits in
length.
length.
Something you are – fox example, biometrics such as fingerprints or retinal.
We will only focus and discuss the first two factors – something you know and something you
have. This new security method can be viewed as a two-tiered authentication approach because it
typically relies on what you know and what you have. A common example of two-factor
authentication is a bank (ATM) card that has been issued by a bank institute:

authentication is a bank (ATM) card that has been issued by a bank institute:
•
The PIN to access your account is “something you know”
•
The ATM card is “something you have”
You must have both of these factors to gain access to your bank account. Similar to the ATM card,
access to the corporate networks and data can also be strengthen using combination of the multiple
factors such as a PIN and a token (hardware or software) to validate the users and reduce the
incidence of online identity theft.

NETGEAR Two-Factor Authentication Solutions
NETGEAR has implemented 2 Two-Factor Authentication solutions from WiKID. WiKID is the
software-based token solution. So instead of using Windows Active Directory or LDAP as the
authentication server, administrators now have the option to use WiKID to do Two-Factor
Authentication on NETGEAR SSL and VPN firewall products.
