Nok Nok Labs Unveils S3 Authentication Suite - Version 8.0.1
Thursday, March 24, 2022
Nok Nok simplifies customers' operational transition to modern identity and passwordless authentication.
SAN JOSE, Calif., March 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Nok Nok Labs (Nok Nok(TM)), with the most scalable passwordless platform for transitioning to modern identity and customer authentication, today announced the latest version of the Nok Nok(TM) S3 Authentication Suite.
With this latest release, companies and organizations can now more easily operationalize modern identity and passwordless authentication in their system-level workflows, business processes and customer payment transactions. The enhancements to the Nok Nok S3 Authentication Suite are also designed to streamline large-scale operations in modern cloud environments and securely integrate with existing cryptographic infrastructure.
Key features and business benefits in this release include:
-- Enhanced Risk-Based Authentication: The S3 Suite now simplifies
Registration and Authentication rules into a single ruleset. This allows
customers to have full control over registration and authentication
workflows based on predetermined business risk criteria to create very
low friction customer journey experiences.
-- Federation Integration: The S3 Suite now supports OpenID Connect as an
integration mechanism allowing S3 to serve as an "authentication
provider" that works with industry-leading identity providers (e.g.,
ForgeRock, Azure B2C) which allows Nok Nok customers to quickly
integrate into existing identity and authentication systems.
-- Enhanced Transaction Confirmation Support: The S3 Suite will support
payment transaction confirmation in Web Applications. Customers
supporting PSD2-SCA workflows will be able to implement dynamic linking
on both Mobile native and Web applications so that a fraudulent merchant
or man-in-the-network can't change the details of a FIDO-authenticated
transaction to hijack and steal transaction revenue.
-- Integration With Existing Enterprise Cryptographic Infrastructure:
Customers will be able to store sensitive digital system keys of our S3
server into standalone HSM (hardware security modules) or cloud-HSM
hardware infrastructure to provide the ultimate business safeguards for
storing and managing digital keys that control access to business
servers and databases.
-- Pluggable Authentication for Backend Database Access: The S3 Suite
servers will offer a pluggable connection framework that supports
multiple architectural approaches to help our customers eliminate
vulnerable database connections based on username and passwords from all
of their existing system-level workflows and applications.
-- Support an External Backend "Secrets" Store: The S3 Server will support
the ability to send push notifications and email-OTP messages through
typically insecure, external gateways. To be secure, connecting and
opening sessions to those external systems requires strong
authentication. With the new "external backend secrets store", S3
offers the highest security in connecting with the systems of external
MFA vendors.
"Through continued innovations that stay ahead of changing threat environments, Nok Nok continues to raise the bar above the modern authentication standards we helped to create. These new capabilities will offer greater integration flexibility for our customers that will enable them to integrate our S3 Suite with the use of their own APIs for handling encryption operations and also the use of external, hardware-based key vaults for storing sensitive information," said Rolf Lindemann, Vice President of Products at Nok Nok.
Nok Nok's S3 Authentication Suite was the first commercially deployed, highly scalable authentication suite built from the ground up leveraging the industry's FIDO authentication protocols. With its modular architecture and container support, the Nok Nok S3 Suite has proven to run at internet scale, supporting mission-critical identity and modern authentication for tens of millions of users while protecting over 1B daily authentications around the globe.
