XyLoc is the only security solution that continues to protect the network after a user has logged on. XyLoc consists of a radio transceiver "Lock" that plugs in to the computer and a discrete wireless radio transmitter "Key" worn by the user. The Lock and Key stay in constant radio communication (up to 50 feet, or 15 metres) to determine user identity and location relative to the computer.

When you approach a computer protected by XyLoc while wearing a XyLoc Key, the Key automatically transmits a unique, 32-bit encrypted ID code to the Lock. The Lock verifies your identity with the XyLoc administration software; if authorised, the XyLoc system will unlock the computer's keyboard and screen. If unauthorised, the system remains locked and information secure.

With the hands-free auto logon, a user can be automatically logged on to the machine as they approach it. XyLoc recognises users and determines their access privileges, preventing information from falling into the wrong hands. The result is convenient, personalised security for a variety of business environments.

By integrating with various software applications used by your employees, XyLoc Enterprise AI can grant access not only to a computer, but to individual applications as well. So rather than users being forced to remember unique passwords for different applications, they can be automatically logged on to the applications they need most. And every time a user steps away from his machine, the computer and all of the sensitive information in its applications are automatically secured.

XyLoc AI can provide customised application integration in a variety of enterprise computing environments. Up to 32 different applications can be configured for each user on the XyLoc system, and virtually any type of application can be integrated: browser-based, server-based, thin client and even legacy mainframe applications.

XyLoc AI can also help you to deliver SINGLE SIGN-ON applications.

Employees today use a wide range of software applications, from financial packages to email clients. Providing secure access to each application forces users to remember dozens of different passwords, a practice which often results in users forgetting passwords and calling the help desk. XyLoc Enterprise AI was developed as a convenient way to secure access to individual applications and offer increased personalisation at the same time.

The XyLoc family of products includes:

XyLoc Solo for single installations or small workgroups

XyLoc Enterprise with central management for enterprise environments

XyLoc Enterprise AI with application integration

and XyLoc MD for the healthcare industry.

NETWORK and Intranet SECURITY can be enhanced by using the XyLoc PROXIMITY SENSOR LOGIN to automatically identify and authenticate users.

Incorrect or insecure passwords form a basic security risk in most systems. In order to make systems easy to access for users, passwords policies are often neglected. Passwords that never change, or are easy to guess, are an open invitation to hackers. By using products like XyLoc, you can achieve ease of use with high levels of security. You need never worry about forgetting your password again, because we can store passwords securely and release them to applications only if you are present at your PC.

Usernames and Passwords are the most commonly used method of identifying computer system users, but what about when the user steps away from the computer ? Even a few minutes absence can create a security breach or loophole. This is particularly important in Call Centres, Contact Centres and Healthcare Environments, where it is VITALLY important to ensure that the person responsible for a particular action is positively identified.

XyLoc was designed to close this window of vulnerability. XyLoc provides full-time access control by determining a user's location and automatically locking the computer when the user is not physically present. With XyLoc, networks are not compromised when employees leave their computers unattended. XyLoc takes the burden of compliance from the user, and brings to security a level of personalisation and convenience never before possible.
