Gemalto deploys secure online banking solution in Indonesia
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Amsterdam, November 4, 2014 - Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653), the world leader
in digital security, announces that its complete strong authentication solution
has been selected by PT Bank Muamalat Indonesia Tbk (BMI) to enhance the
security of their internet banking platform. BMI is the first bank in Indonesia
to introduce innovative services adapted to Islamic financial practices,
operating 456 outlets spread across 33 provinces. The combined Ezio eBanking
Server and the Ezio Signing Token will deliver end-to-end protection of
sensitive data enabling BMI to gain increased customer confidence and meet
various government and industry-specific regulations.
The key differentiator of the Ezio solution is the strong authentication server,
the first to be compliant with both the leading proprietary technologies and the
industry's most popular open standards - supporting all types of two-factor
authentication tokens, including OTP, PKI, OATH and software solutions. This
enables easy integration with BMI legacy systems while protecting its
investments. The server supports a wide variety of form factors, offering BMI
increased flexibility in choosing the authentication method that best suits each
customer segment's needs, and ensuring scalability in the future.
BMI's current SMS-based token system will be replaced by the Ezio Signing Token,
used for authentication and authorization of sensitive transactions. The token
will be made available to BMI's corporate customers for securing high-value
online banking transactions.
"Internet banking is a crucial service that allows BMI to effectively serve its
physically distributed customer base," said Tan Teik Guan, Vice President
Authentication Server and Software Solutions at Gemalto. "In Indonesia, the
internet is forecast to grow at a rate three times that of the overall economy
over the next five years and is expected to account for at least 2.5% of GDP by
2016. The scalability of Gemalto's Ezio solution prepares BMI to meet this
anticipated strong demand."
Gemalto supplies its Ezio solution to BMI through its partner PT Infinetworks
Global.
