SecSign ID - The mobile way to log into web sites
SecSign ID is a plugin for real two-factor authentication (2FA) for Joomla sites. 2FA adds another layer of security to your website by using a second token. In this case the physical token is your smartphone. If you seek for more information about about two-factor authentication have a look at https://www.secsign.com.

• Integrate SecSign ID into your own Joomla site in less than one minute. (There are also APIs for PHP and Java.)
• You and your users can also use SecSign ID to visit securely other web sites (e.g.portal.secsign.com for professional messaging and cloud sharing.)
• This service is free for users and web site owners and free of advertising - no matter how many users the web site has.
• You can also integrate SecSign ID as in-house solution into your existing infrastructure (on request with licensed service and maintenance contract)

SecSign ID features:
- Quick and easy to use single sign-on with 2048-bit high security
- Eliminates password chaos and security concerns
- No mobile number, credit card or time-consuming registration required
- No need for long cryptical passwords, time-consuming retyping of codes from SMS or reading of QR codes
- High security and strong cryptography on all levels

Technical details:
- Up to 2048-bit asymmetric private keys
- Brute force resistant private key storage (SafeKey mechanism)
- Private keys are never transmitted to the authentication server
- High availability through redundant remote failover servers
- Multi-tier high security architecture with multiple firewalls and protocol filters
