1) Two Factor (TF) Client Certificates are a User Authentication Solution that is a High-Performance, Low Cost Solution Requiring Little Integration
Financial institutions are under pressure to comply with Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) guidelines to strengthen their mutual authentication processes for online banking transactions. With Comodo TF, FNBI can support a high-performance two-factor solution while reducing operating costs. This two-factor solution offers significant advantages over other two-factor solutions:

* High level of flexibility and configurability and solution can be deployed in days
* Ease of customer support
