As we rely more on using online services to control various aspects of our lives we end up with a host of login credentials that can be difficult to manage.
Toronto based identity specialist SecureKey is today launching its SecureKey Concierge service in the US. This allows consumers to choose a trusted credential they already have and use frequently to login to other sites, thereby eliminating the need for additional usernames and passwords.
The solution is being offered to online service providers in state and local government, healthcare, financial services, and other markets where consumer privacy, high assurance authentication and ID verification are required.
"As online fraud and security breaches increase, SecureKey Concierge is driving a new era of convenience, security and privacy, translating into peace of mind for consumers using the web for critical applications and services," says Charles Walton, CEO of SecureKey. "The US launch is part of SecureKey's commitment to expanding our ecosystem of trusted partnerships and online service provider communities to dramatically simplify the account opening process for increased customer acquisition, while facilitating greater efficiency in credential management".
