4TRESS Kerberos Agent eliminates the need for a user to enter his/her
Windows(R) password in addition to a one-time password (OTP) during the
authentication process. By removing the need for users to know their Windows
password the organization has strengthened the security of its network access
by moving from single factor authentication (Windows(R) password only) to a
multifactor authentication (authentication device + PIN). To read the rest of
