What does a user do?

Step one Place the smart card in the reader and switch it on.
Step two Choose “Code” ( to generate a one-time password).
Step three PIN? When asked, input the PIN number into the reader.
Step four A set of digits appears which is the one-time password

This can now be used to “unlock” access to the on-line banking site, or used to authenticate the user on the telephone.

Customers have different needs

Banks need authentication for customers of all types: corporate, retail as well as internal employees.
• Professional customers and corporate users of on-line banking have very specific needs.
They require access to many services such as account consultation,bank transfers, multiple account management and cash flow management. Access to these services may need to be authenticated for several different users who may all require separate authentication profiles.

• Personal users of internet banking can also be subdivided:
- occasional users need basic services such as account consultation, printing of account details;
- more regular users require the addition of limited bank transfers and maybe stock dealing;
- the most intensive users may require all services plus international transfers and transfers of much larger sums

 

In each case, the authentication means needs to take into account the type of transaction, which managed by a one time password, alternatively combined with a challenge /response mode, or a full transaction data signature.
Banks also need systems adaptable for their own internal security needs for use by employees, which have their own requirements related to the types of operations performed in remote locations.

The range of needs means that banks need a complete modular range of supporting devices to provide to users whether corporate, retail or internal employees.
O2S Multi-Devices offers to banks the complete modular range of devices that can all be run with a single EMV based solution known as MasterCard CAP ( Chip Authentication Program) or dynamic passcode authentication from Visa.

> EMV-based standard
The EMV based standard is the core of the O2S multi-devices range. This is the worldwide standard for smart cards . An application called CAP (Chip Authentication Program) from MasterCard, and Dynamic Passcode Authentication from Visa can be used on EMV smartcards to provide authentication. By putting this application onto the bank smart cards it is possible to use the card and a reader to generate a password that can be used once (so-called one time password).
