FreeBalance is a Government Resource Planning (GRP) software vendor (think ERP focused on the unique aspects of government), and they are integrating AuthenWare into their flagship FreeBalance Accountability Suite. Effectively they are packaging and providing AuthenWare as an additional layer of protection within their system to ensure that the credentials of FreeBalance government agency users cannot be compromised or used maliciously.

This is a win-win for both companies.

While obviously FreeBalance users immediately benefit with stronger security, the technology is also “zero-footprint software,” meaning it is requires no tokens or additional end-user hardware, making it virtually undetectable to the system users – which was an important consideration for FreeBalance since it did not want to change they way they use the system today – only make it more secure.

The addition of AuthenWare creates a nearly impenetrable line of defense for the FreeBalance Accountability Suite that stops identity theft, web fraud and system vulnerability. It helps make user authentication and validation easy, cost-effective and most importantly – reliable – which are critical aspects to sustaining security within any government organization.
