AuthenTec has introduced a solution that brings fingerprint security to virtual private network authentication on Android-powered smartphones and tablets.
AuthenTec touts the new solution, called QuickSec Mobile VPN Client 2.0, as being an upgrade over the native VPN Client the Android operating system provides as it’s more secure, faster, interoperable and less expensive to maintain.
AuthenTec is also touting the new QuickSec as a significant upgrade over its predecessor as, in addition to supporting Android operating systems, it offers IKEv2 with MOBIKE and IPv6 support as well as improved configuration, security and interoperability with all the major VPN gateways.
The new mobile software solution will be demonstrated by AuthenTec at CTIA Enterprise & Applications 2011 at the San Diego Convention Center October 11th through 13th.
