Finning (UK), the distributor of Caterpillar equipment has selected SecurEnvoy to combat security threats around remote working.
Finning UK has signed a deal with SecurEnvoy to implement SecurAccess, which replaces its previous token system for remote working. SecurAccess provides employees with ‘virtual tokens’ – passcodes sent to their mobile phones – which are entered alongside usual login details, to access networks and emails from remote locations.
Karl McCormack, infrastructure manager at Finning UK said: “Our previous system using hardware tokens had many problems – they are expensive, easy to lose or break and are not at all user friendly. SecurAccess has provided the perfect solution to a complex problem facing IT security.”
“Mobile working is undoubtedly becoming more common, and we want to support employees who want more flexibly, without compromising security,” said Steve Watts, co-founder at SecurEnvoy. “Tokens get lost, go wrong and create waste, but everyone has a mobile phone with them all of the time, so it’s a much safer option.”
