VIP Authentication Service

• VeriSign® Identity Protection (VIP) Authentication Service provides strong, visible security for online commerce applications. Based on open standards, the VIP Authentication Service is a two-factor authentication solution fully hosted by VeriSign, Inc., that enables a wide choice of credentials including security tokens, credit card sized devices and mobile phones. Two-factor authentication (2FA) combines something you know (such as a username and password) with something you have (a credential such as a smart card, security token, or mobile phone). The VIP Authentication Service provides the validation for ‘something you have’. This service allows enterprises to easily issue and/ or accept multiple credentials from each user.
