E-commerce and payments processor First Data Corp has selected IronKey’s Trusted Access as an option for its customers of its First Data Internet Banking product.
First Data clients with the Trusted Access service will be able to meet the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) guidelines for new online security controls by acting as part of a layered security program.
Trusted Access creates secure, separate Web browser access specifically tailored for online banking sessions so that they escape attacks by malware, keyboard loggers, man-in-the-browsers, ‘backconnect’ Trojan and DNS tampering, among others. This separate browser also provides secure banking sessions even if the machine is currently infected.
