Commerzbank Case Study
Secure "Anywhere" Access to Hosted Desktops—Leostream Enables Commerzbank North America (NY) to Deploy Strong User Authentication via Smart Cards
In 2007, Commerzbank North America (NY) embarked on a virtualization project that included moving to a Hosted Desktop model for all employees. A key problem was data security. While Hosted Desktops solved many data security issues by providing access to corporate data stored centrally in the data center, it opened other gaps because traditional security methods based on building access could be circumvented. Commerzbank engaged Leostream, Wyse, and IdentiPHI to create a smart card-based authentication system for Hosted Desktops. Using a solution based on smart cards that store X.509 digital certificates, smart card readers, Wyse® WTOS® thin clients and Microsoft® Active Directory®, these partners developed a multi-factor, strong authentication solution that provides straightforward log in and "anywhere" access for end users while adhering to strict industry security standards.
