Authlite and Yubico DO care about customers!

I say this as I just recieved a conference call from the guy’s at Yubico and Collective Software saying they noticed my blog post and that I had ordered there authlite package and asked me what I thought of there product and if there was anything else that I could want from them.

How cool is that!

I wish I could have talked longer however I was driving at the time so I had to keep it brief (but yes I did have time to mention linux login using the yubikey)

They also let me know about there affilate program which I’ve now signed up with so if you order a yubikey or authlite package using the following link I’ll get a small portion of the money! Sweet! (GET YOUR YUBIKEY NOW! :D )

Yubico and Authlite, Finally 2 factor login for windows!

First of if you don’t know what 2 factor authentication is, in the most common usage practice is a password (1st factor) and something else, usually an object or piece of paper with random passwords (2nd factor) to be entered in allowing passage through whatever login your dealing with, often using a One Time Pad (OTP) which is a password that you’ll only ever use once and should never repeat itself.

If your paranoid you’ve already heard of and gotten yourself a yubikey from yubico.com if not hold on a sec and check out what I’m about to drop on ya. (here’s a quick pic of my daily usb devices)

Up until now I’ve loved my yubikey, hell I have to use it to post on this site, but have always wanted a OTP enabled windows login. Authlite has teamed up with Yubico and fixed this!

Not only has Authlite fixed this problem they offer yubikey enabled almost everything on the windows platform! (Come on linux version!) From remote access, Active directory, and the all important Windows Login!

I’m very excited! I’ve already ordered my bundle and anxiously await it!
