The WiKID Community Version is a free-as-in-speech two-factor authentication system. We have included every piece of the WiKID code, except code we licensed from 3rd parties. You can read more about the differences between the Community and Enterprise version.
What can I do with it?
Get rid of your passwords!
If you manage multiple accounts and boxes across multiple entities, WiKID can help you reduce your password overload. One WiKID token can work with multiple WiKID servers, so, if you want to get rid of your static passwords, deploy WiKID in as many places as you can. To make this as easy as possible, we have published some articles on how to use WiKID with TACACS+, OpenVPN, Webmail/SquirrelMail, and FreeNX (and thus VNC and RDP).
WiKID is great for:
- Strong authentication for remote access via a VPN
- Strong Authentication for remote access via Citrix
- Two-factor Authentication for extranet applications
- Locking down internet-exposed intranets
- Secure Online Banking – fight phishing and other attacks
- Lock down SSH and other admin access
- Any place you might have used certificates or token, but couldn’t because of cost, hassle, etc.
