    Greetings:

    We are aggressively seeking testing and feedback on the most recent
    release of our two-factor authentication system. All product testers
    that fill out a brief survey and/or provide solid feedback on the
    product will receive a 50% discount on the cost of the WiKID server
    appliance (a $4750 value) plus 25% off seat license costs for the first
    year. Non-profits, including researchers and open-source development
    projects may be eligible for additional discounts or complimentary
    licenses.

    Testers will need a suitable server for the system. Minimum
    requirements are: A pentium (III 700mhz or higher) motherboard, 256
    megs of RAM, at least one NIC, 500 meg + harddrive. The ISO will
    completely erase the hard drive. The server can also be tested in
    VMWare. WiKID supports RADIUS, LDAP, and has a plugin for Steal
    Belted Radius and Citrix Web Interface, plus an API for custom
    applications in COM or Java.

    The WiKID token client runs on a variety of platforms: Windows, Linux,
    Mac, Palm, PocketPC, J2ME and Blackberry (BREW coming soon).

    Download of the WiKID ISO is protected by WiKID Authentication. Set up
    a a WiKID client here: http://www.wikidsystems.com/signup/index.jsp,
    and you will be taken to the log in for the download site. All we ask
    for is a valid e-mail address. You will not be bombarded with sales
    calls even if you do enter a real phone number ;). Log into the
    extranet with your WiKID client and download the ISO and the
    documentation.

    Why would you care and what is special about WiKID?

    WiKID Systems combines asymmetric cryptography and a PIN/one-time
    passcode transaction to authenticate users. Our architecture is unique
    in that:

    * WiKID uses a software client with asymmetric encryption plus a
    PIN/one-time password transaction to securely authenticate users more
    securely than certificates with none of the hassles of hardware-based
    symmetric solutions
    * we can automate the initial validation process based on existing
    trusted AD credentials via ASP scripts we provide
    * one client can handle multiple relationships with multiple servers
    across multiple enterprises simply and securely
    * one user can have multiple clients
    * the system is highly extensible - we have extended it to reset AD LAN
    passwords

    In sum, we are less expensive than other solutions, easier to implement
    and maintain and more extensible, at least that's what we're trying to
    test ;).

    Sincerely,

    Nick Owen
