SecurEnvoy facilitates remote working for staff at city councils and municipal authorities











Authenticate your way


(PRWEB UK) 17 March 2014

From law enforcement officials to highway surveyors – staff at public authorities often work away from the office. As a result, they need to access city or municipal networks remotely in order to document their assignments. Employees at many such authorities log in via two-factor authentication and identify themselves using dedicated hardware tokens. However, with this approach, the procurement and maintenance costs relating to the tokens can rapidly escalate. An alternative is offered by the manufacturer SecurEnvoy, which has developed a tokenless two-factor authentication method. With this, staff working remotely can easily and efficiently log into networks using devices such as smartphones.

Traditional tokens, such as smart cards, are used in addition to login details in order to provide access authorisation in many companies and organisations. However, the implementation of such methods is often lengthy and replacing defective tokens can become expensive. SecurEnvoy enables companies and organisations to make use of smartphones, laptops or tablets as authentication devices. One of the methods from the SecurAccess solution is to send a dynamically generated password to the mobile devices of employees via SMS or e-mail. The password received is then combined with the user’s login information to enable tokenless two-factor authentication. Staff of public authorities can thus quickly and conveniently access IT networks. Examples such as the London Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea illustrate the advantages of tokenless two-factor authentication.

Reduced operating costs

The borough on the western side of the British capital employs thousands of civil servants to take care of the needs of approximately 150,000 inhabitants. In this context, more and more employees are accessing the administration’s main network remotely. For many years, non-office staff carried with them a dedicated, physical token, which generated access codes for network authentication purposes. However, this method proved to be time-consuming and insecure. Tokens were frequently lost or left behind with laptops and the constant need to replace them led to increased operating costs. The management found a better way with a tokenless approach and implemented a tokenless two-factor authentication procedure based on SecurAccess.

“The borough had already equipped more than 1,000 employees with mobile phones. We therefore wanted to make even greater use of this investment and save on the cost of dedicated tokens,” explains Russell Hookway, Network & Telecommunications Manager at the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. “The good value for money offered was another reason why we really wanted to use the SecurEnvoy technology.”

Security concerns dispelled

The City Council of the Scottish city of Dundee, with a population of 140,000, also successfully uses tokenless two-factor authentication. The City Council’s aim was to address security concerns associated with location-independent network access by employees. In this regard, the City Council is subject to the requirements of the Scottish Government’s Code of Conduct and Compliance (CoCo) for local authorities.

“We wanted to improve the security of our virtual private networks and liked the easy and secure network access process offered by an SMS-based method,” explains Graeme Quinn, IT Team Leader of Dundee City Council. “Almost everyone has a mobile phone nowadays so overall costs can be managed. SecurAccess is a quick and easy solution to security issues related to remote access.”

More rapid processing of requests

In the Dutch province of Gelderland, tokenless two-factor authentication replaced the use of smart cards. Often the cards did not work, which resulted in many calls to the help desk from remote workers and also led to delays in carrying out requests. Card readers are also an issue when people work from home or from personal devices so combined with the issues of deploying certificates to the cards and the usability of the cards themselves, so organisations are finding it quicker, easier and more cost effective to use a tokenless alternative. The public authority contacted SecurEnvoy via a Dutch IT provider and opted for the SecurAccess solution. The positive effects soon became tangible: The processing time for individual remote requests was reduced from almost 50 minutes to about 30 seconds.

Cash Funds Fast Reveals a New Affordable Resource of Emergency Business Loan Options for Small Business and Industry Specific Businesses to Acquire Needed Working Capital













CashFundsFast.com


Nationwide (PRWEB) September 25, 2013

An unsecured business bank loan is hard to come by these days, especially small business loans for the service and retail sector. Professional organizations, such as law practices, architectural firms, and engineering consultants are likewise being shut out.

Credit unions have filled part of the gap, “While some banks have money to lend, the requirements for small businesses to get a hold of it are so strict that many are frozen out. Paul Gentile, executive vice president at the Credit Union National Association, says large banks are reticent to make business loans under $ 200,000 which is where credit unions come in,” reports Fox Small Business News, on April 23, 2013, at: http://smallbusiness.foxbusiness.com/finance-accounting/2013/04/23/out-box-loan-options-to-start-business.

However, a new initiative in Congress to expand credit union unsecured business bank loan products has stalled, because the big banks are actively lobbying against the measure. Large corporate banks are attempting to hold onto their dominant market share.

With merchant cash advance rates at near historic lows, small businesses are turning to alternative lenders like Cash Funds Fast. These lenders offer products such as emergency business loan and does not require substantial financial documentation or collateral to lock in competitive merchant cash advance rates. These lenders also approve financing arrangements regardless of liabilities.

That’s not the case with the big banks, “If a business already has a lot of outstanding debts, whether from other loans, lines of credit, or accounts payable, business loan lenders are unlikely to extend it further credit,” explains Small Business Bonfire.

Cash Funds Fast is changing the landscape of commercial lending. The company boasts a 98 percent approval rate, offers low rates, flexible repayment terms, and does not require a plethora of documentation for its application review process like conventional lenders do. Small businesses seeking an unsecured business bank loan are constantly being rejected by traditional lenders. Those lenders often require sizeable guarantees to hedge their risk.

However, companies should not use personal assets to secure a commercial loan. A report done by the Fox Business network advises, “…business owners can find untapped collateral that can be used to back the loan. If a business owner comes up with it, whether it’s stock or a house, the bank will be willing to talk. Keep in mind that financial experts don’t recommend putting up a home to back a small business loan, unless it’s a last resort option. In the ideal situation, the collateral will be something tied to the business, and not the business owner’s personal finances.”

Alternative lenders are a great resource to avoid such risk, especially if seeking an emergency business loan. Funding through Cash Funds Fast starts with a simple and free application. Money is generally available in less than a week, and applicants can receive as much as $ 500,000. No credit checks are required and repayment is based on a percentage rate rather than a fixed payment amount. Businesses enjoy flexible repayment terms based on monthly credit card receipts. That means if a company experiences a slower month; the payment is adjusted downward.

What’s more is the lender offers emergency loans, which can help businesses facing unforeseen circumstances of all kinds. Companies can apply online within minutes and receive pre-approval in as little as 24 hours. Funds are typically available in under a week.
