“DIGIPASS 760 is the first successful integration of Cronto’s patented solution into VASCO’s DIGIPASS product line,” says the company, and “the authentication device (is being) targeted towards banks, enabling them to establish a secure optical communication channel with the client.

How does it work? “Account holders enter their transaction details on the bank’s website”, says VASCO. “These details are then encrypted and presented as a graphical cryptogram on the user’s computer or tablet. Users simply scan this image with the 760’s built-in camera a coloured cryptogram and the transaction details are presented for user verification. A signature is then generated which the user enters on the bank’s website to confirm the transaction.”
