FOBISS is next with its intelligent business operations technology that leverages the power of artificial intelligence.

It chooses the optimum decisions out of millions of possible combinations—something standard analytical tools cannot do.
The biggest value of the technology lies in its rich, advanced analytic tools, such as “what if” scenario modeling based on real-time profitability counting capabilities, which allow decision makers not only to make the best operational and tactical decisions in real time, but also to flexibly and timely adjust to the winning strategies.

Sedicii Previews its Versatile Authentication Solution that Replaces Passwords

By David Penn Posted on
Categories: FinovateEurope 2015, Sedicii

Sedicii_logo_high-res.jpgThis post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.

Sedicii provides authentication technology that can prove a person is who they say they are.

Today’s internet world requires users of secure services to authenticate themselves before they receive access to the services they seek. This need to authenticate has spawned an ever-increasing number of websites that mimic the look and feel of a genuine website with the intention of fooling the unsuspecting user into entering their user credentials (login name and password).

Based on the zero-knowledge protocol, Sedicii’s patented, strong authentication technology can prevent data compromise from man-in-the-browser, man-in-the-middle, and server-side attacks. The service is used in a traditional web or app context, but can also be used to authenticate through contact centers or other offline services with a single, easy-to-use interface.
