Delivered Solution by MONET+

In 2014, MONET+ implemented the CASE authentication server, including modules supporting a federation service model based on the SAML protocol, enabling SSO principles for web applications.

The CASE system within the ČS internal environment integrates two authentication methods: SMS passwords and a mobile authentication app, which can function in online mode (authenticator without code retyping) or offline mode (OTP generator).

In addition to visual customization, the mobile application is integrated with the MDM system to ensure PKI certificate distribution to end devices; it also enforces local validation when logging in from mobile devices (i.e., login is only permitted from devices managed via the organization’s MDM system).

The comprehensive authentication solution by MONET+ helped implement strategic changes in IT service delivery to end users. The solution is built on strong security parameters while addressing users’ needs in terms of comfort and usability.
