Hate passwords? Do you use the same password on multiple servers? If
so, please check out the Open Source version of the WiKID Strong
Authentication System. The WiKID Strong Authentication System is a
key-based two-factor authentication system that is flexible enough to
replace passwords. We built WiKID to be a flexible, extensible, and
secure alternative to tokens or passwords. The project website is here:


https://sourceforge.net/projects/wikid-twofactor/

Here is a brief overview what we have released:
[vbcol=seagreen]

The server is packaged as RPMs for your convenience. SRPMs are
available too. It is tested on Fedora Core 4 with Tomcat 4.1.27.
Features include:
[vbcol=seagreen]
network resources[vbcol=seagreen]
bad passcode attempts by domain[vbcol=seagreen]
strong authentication such as online banking[vbcol=seagreen]

Feedback and contributions very much appreciated.

Nick
