Secure SSH with WiKID two factor authentication |
 vote
 |
|
SSH offers a highly secure channel for remote administration of servers. However, if you face an audit for regulatory or business requirements, such as Visa/Mastercard PCI, you need to be aware of some potential authentication related short-comings that may cause headaches in an audit. For example: - There is no way to control which users have public key authorization
- There is no way to enforce passphrase complexity (or even be sure that one is being used)
- There is no way to expire a public key
In this document we are going to demonstrate how to combine two-factor authentication from WiKID with an SSH gateway server with hosted private keys to create a highly secure, auditable and easy to use remote access solution. read more... |

Configure OpenVPN with WiKID Strong Authentication |
 vote
 |
|
| These instructions describe setting up two-factor authentication with WiKID Strong Authentication, which is a commercial/open source two-factor authentication system and OpenVPN, an SSL-encrypted VPN, on a Linux server using the Radius Pluggable Authentication Module.. First, we will configure PAM to use Radius, then we will configure OpenVPN to use PAM and one-time passwords, then we will create a network client on the WiKID server for OpenVPN. We won't go into specifics about installing these services, rather we will focus on configuring them to all work together. read more... |

Secure VNC remote access with two-factor authentication |
 vote
 |
|
| VNC is the most popular remote access solution today. However, it was developed to provide remote access, not to provide secure remote access. Administrators have to add security to VNC by tunneling it through an encrpyted channel such as SSH and adding a layer of authentication. In this article, we will show you how to combine the NoMachine NX server to encrypt VNC and remote X session combined with two-factor authentication from WiKID Systems to create a secure, fast remote access solution. read more... |
