primeid PROFESSIONAL offers the foundation and the infrastructure for strong authentication to enterprise resources, for example via desktop, laptop, terminal services, virtual desktops (VDI), the corporate VPN, email, CRM/ERP systems, and cloud applications. Users will be equipped with smart cards as their primary device for two-factor authentication and with virtual smart cards for emergency use.

A one-time password or challenge/response mechanisms and a self-service client at the pre-logon stage allow users to self-enroll and self-recover. This results in a convenient user experience, particularly for distributed organizations with remote employees across time zones.

Security officers can manage digital identities at fine granularity through their entire life cycle and define tailor-made policies to meet the organization's security requirements.

primeid PROFESSIONAL credentials and certificates are also suitable for applications beyond authentication, including digital signing and data encryption, through native (Windows) or third-party applications and plug-ins.
