A system includes technology which connects to different mobile phones and copes with the problems connected with delays of sending and obtaining text messages and absence of network.

In comparison with alternative methods, a system is simple in control and cost-efficient in operation. It is not necessary to install the additional software on phones of users that reduces need of complex testing, technical support and training. It is especially important as on each new phone model the interface changes. The philosophy of development of the program is based on reuse of the existing technologies as, for example, Microsoft Active Directory, with simplification of authentication process of the end user and ensuring complete security.

Unlike traditional tokens for which deployment and replacements are required months SecurAccess is capable to connect more than 20 thousand new remote users for an hour, developers claim. SecurAccess is also integrated with servers of remote access and web services (Juniper, Citrix, Fortinet, Sonic Aventail, Cisco, Checkpoint, Celestix, Microsoft, F5, etc.).
