The partnership between the two companies enables developers and organizations of any size to utilize the Clickatell technology platform for delivering Confident Technologies' image-based authentication to end-users' mobile phones for cost-effective, out-of-band (OOB), multifactor authentication that is secure and easy to use.

An increasing number of online businesses large and small - from online banks and healthcare portals, to webmail providers and social networks - are deploying multifactor authentication. The Confident Technologies solution is particularly effective against automated attacks because users solve an image-based authentication challenge in the mobile browser on their phone for the second factor of authentication.

The process remains completely out-of-band from the web session on the PC, making it very secure. At the same time, it is extremely easy to use - the user simply taps a few images on their mobile phone's display screen, so there is no need to type any code into the web page on the PC.

As a cloud-based solution, Confident Multifactor Authentication is conveniently integrated and deployed, with no special enrollment required for end-users. Confident Multifactor Authentication can be used as a stand-alone authentication solution or white-labeled and integrated with other security solutions for a comprehensive, risk-based authentication solution.

Pricing is based upon the number of authentication transactions used, making Confident Multifactor Authentication cost-effective for organizations of all sizes, as customers pay only for what they use.
