Symantec VIP vs. Accops HyID

Symantec Validation and ID Protection (VIP) is a cloud-based, multi-factor authentication (MFA) service designed to secure access to sensitive data and applications across various devices and locations. By combining traditional username and password credentials with additional authentication factors, such as one-time passwords (OTPs), biometrics, or hardware tokens, VIP enhances security without compromising user productivity. Its scalable infrastructure allows organizations to implement robust authentication measures without the need for dedicated on-premises hardware.

HyID enables strong multi-factor authentication based on One-Time-Password, Bio-metrics parameters validations, Device Hardware ID & PKI. HyID protects the corporate resources from unchecked access by privileged users and provides detailed audit logs about who accessed what, from where and what time. The system can generate alerts based when an access by a user invalidates the set risk thresholds, enabling organizations to detect and prevent identity thefts and privilege rights misuse.
