“Being recognized for having the most secure MFA and being the
trailblazer in the category by a leading cybersecurity publication
is remarkable validation that our years of hard work have been
worth the effort,” said Token CEO, John Gunn. “Ransomware losses
have exploded as cybercrime has become democratized on the dark
web. Now, almost anyone with an internet connection can find
Ransomware-as-a-Service apps, Fraud GPT, and other tools that don’t
require any hacking skills to launch devastating ransomware
attacks.”
Ransomware is every organization’s number one risk
Losses from ransomware attacks and data breaches have eclipsed
the office of the CISO and become a top priority for CEOs, boards,
regulators, and cyber risk insurance providers. Every day brings
news of another major ransomware attack, and for every major loss,
countless others go unreported. Organizations have become easy
targets for cybercriminals because most are using 20-year-old
legacy MFA technology to stop cybercriminals who are using the
power of generative AI and the most advanced attack methods.
Next-generation MFA eliminates the risks of cybercriminals using
stolen credentials, MFA prompt bombing, Sim Swapping, BYOD
compromises, Adversary-in-the-Middle (AitM/MitM), and other common
attack methods.
Token Ring Next-Generation MFA
Token Ring is a simple, fast, and user-friendly way to protect
organizations against phishing and ransomware cyberattacks.
BioTouch Secure integrates fingerprint biometrics, the most secure
form of user authentication, into an attractive wearable device for
the ultimate in user convenience and enterprise security. Token
Ring features a capacitive fingerprint sensor for the highest level
of biometric security, a large capacity secure element to safely
store biometric information and user credentials, a
capacitive-touch bezel for user friendly operation, and NFC and
Bluetooth communications for universal compatibility. Token Ring
combines these capabilities into an appealing ring for convenience
and to prevent the loss of authentication devices.
