DRDO secures SAP ERP systems from rising hack attacks

NEW DELHI, INDIA: Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO), India’s defense R&D agency has deployed Innefu’s AuthShield Two Factor Authentication (2FA) solution to secure access SAP ERP systems from growing data breaches and hack attacks, both from within and outside in the country.

Owing to persistent hack attacks on SAP systems deployed around the world, DRDO chose to implement Innefu AuthShield two factor authentication solution to re-validate credentials & authenticity of users every time they logged into the organization’s ERP.

Innefu authshield 2FA solution uses dual mode of identification where along with the user id and password of the user, verification is also done through a randomly generated one time password (OTP) or a challenge response mechanism using push notification protocol. The OTP is generated automatically and provided to the user through multiple form factors including hard token, mobile push, mobile token, soft token, SMS token and voice token.  An organization can easily mix and match and choose specific form factors for different users.
