Information is one of your most valuable assets
For banks, mortgage companies, investment firms, and the full range of other financial services organizations, ensuring the
security of information is among the highest priorities. Organizations need security solutions that prevent fraud and network
breaches, sustain regulatory compliance, and help maintain business continuity. But those solutions also must provide a
secure foundation for moving the business forward, enabling financial services firms to launch new services, consolidate their
network infrastructure, and reduce costs.

For more than 25 years, SafeNet has led the market in securing the most sensitive financial information for the world’s most
important financial services institutions. Today SafeNet offers a comprehensive portfolio of security solutions that work togeth-
er to address the constantly evolving challenges facing organizations in this industry. By providing multi-factor authentication
technologies, hardware security modules (HSMs), high-speed encryptors (HSEs), and encryptions solutions for data centers
and endpoints, SafeNet can help you secure sensitive information and prepare you to capitalize on new opportunities.
Prevent fraud and defend against attacks
With the increasing integration of technology into financial services, security threats
are on the rise. Today’s security solutions must be ready for both external and internal
threats, ranging from identity theft and phishing schemes to browser attacks and net-
work breaches. To retain customer trust and avoid tremendous financial losses, you
need solutions that protect identities, transactions, data, and communications across
the entire spectrum of financial services operations—from traditional ATM transactions
and payment settlements to online banking transactions and remote interactions with
corporate networks.
SafeNet provides a broad array of security solutions to protect financial services orga-
nizations, their customers, and their partners from the rising tide of threats:
• SafeNet authentication solutions, including one-time password (OTP), software
authentication, and certificate-based solutions, ensure that only authorized users
access information from online banking and trading sites as well as internal systems
and applications.
• SafeNet HSMs secure a full range of transactions—from customer point-of-sale
and online transactions to electronic fund transfers (EFTs) and business-to-business
exchanges—by protecting cryptographic keys and provisioning encryption, decryp-
tion, authentication, and digital signing services.
• SafeNet HSEs protect data in motion, providing a fast, easy, and robust way to
secure communications and data transfers to and from branch offices and remote
disaster recovery sites.
• SafeNet data center and endpoint encryption solutions provide persistent data
protection, securing information as it is created by an employee on a laptop, shared
with a business partner by e-mail, stored in an enterprise database, processed by
an application, and accessed by a field employee on a mobile device.
SafeNet one-time password solutions
reduce online fraud by 90 percent
Company: Banamax
Banamax, a Mexican subsidiary of Citigroup, needed
a way to reduce financial fraud and comply with all
regulations while expanding online banking services.
The organization deployed one million SafeNet one-
time password (OTP) authentication tokens to its
customers, employees, and business partners to
provide secure access to the company’s online ac-
count services. With the push of a button, SafeWord
authenticators generate a highly secure, one-time
password that can never be re-used, hacked, or
otherwise compromised. The SafeWord password
provides two-factor authentication to ensure only
properly authenticated users can conduct
online banking.
With SafeNet solutions, Banamax reduced online
fraud by 90 percent, complied with all regulations,
and earned a reputation for excellent online banking
that provided a competitive edge.
“SafeNet solutions have played a vital role in
helping us provide superior online banking services
while protecting our customers with leading-edge
security technology.”

SafeNet Helps Egg
Accelerate PIN Issuance
Company: Egg Banking
Egg Banking, the United Kingdom’s leading online
bank, wanted customers to be able to use their bank
cards immediately after receiving them, instead of
having to wait a week or more to receive a PIN by
mail. At the same time, the bank wanted to reduce
the costs of mailing PINs and remove the possibility
that a PIN letter could be intercepted in transit.
Egg selected the SafeNet ViewPIN+ solution, which
delivers PINs securely through the Internet. By
combining tamper-resistant hardware, network
connectivity, and remote administration, ViewPIN+
enables Egg to ensure the tightest security without
adding administrative complexity. Egg is saving ma-
terial, printing, postage, and labor costs while also
eliminating the pollution caused by transporting that
mail. ViewPIN+ improves the customer experience
and provides Egg with a competitive advantage.
Reduce costs
For most financial services organizations, reducing the costs of
information security is essential. SafeNet solutions work together to prevent
fraud and eliminate threats, helping you significantly reduce the costs of
having to resolve fraud cases or fix breaches while minimizing the customer
churn that can result in even greater revenue loss. SafeNet solutions are
also designed to reduce administrative complexity and control the costs
of sustaining compliance. For example, the centralized key management
of SafeNet data center and endpoint encryption solutions can help you
reduce audit scope and simplify ongoing management.
By helping to migrate paper-based processes to digital ones, SafeNet
solutions can generate additional savings while also enhancing business
sustainability. The SafeNet ViewPIN+ solution, for example, enables you to
deliver PINs over the Internet, reducing the costs and environmental impact
of sending PINs by mail. With ViewPIN+, you can provide an exceptional
customer experience, differentiate your business from competitors, and
tighten security.
