Austin, TX 9/20/2020: Today, Access Smart announces that they now accepts #Bitcoin payments utilizing Gemini Trust. Gemini’s focus on security and a vast portfolio of products and services makes them the perfect partner.
The management at Access Smart has always prided itself as being innovators and visionaries. We started off in 2005 with Power LogOn combining multi-factor authentication (#MFA) with password management using smartcard technology. Next, we expanded Power LogOn to work with contactless credentials like employee access control badges. Then just last month we expanded Power LogOn to work with existing certificates and government issues credentials (PIV, CAC, CIV, TWIC and others) without rebadge or re-certification. Moving to the #cryptocurrencies and #blockchainsecurity is the next logical step.
“Cryptocurrencies and #blockchains are more than a technology,” said Dovell Bonnett, Founder and CEO of Access Smart. “It’s a new driving force for security. As businesses move to decentralized networks, Bitcoin is a viable means of fast and secure payments, especially cross border payments. Gemini’s support for stronger authentication makes them the perfect crypto exchange for our customers and us.”
Access Smart’s ability to integrate true multi-factor authentication using the employee ID badge expands the security and convenience of the blockchain down to every employee. We integrate enterprise security by putting the login protections back into the hands of IT, and accountability in the hands of the employees.
As more and more companies and government agencies around the world adopt blockchain for transparency and Bitcoin for financial payments, Access Smart once again is at the forefront of securing company data and protecting privacy.
