Director of Federal Sales at Anakam
Washington D.C. Metro Area
I lead federal business development and direct sales objectives for Anakam. Our technology provides a unique and proven product suite aimed at ensuring that government systems/applications are operating in compliance with existing federal mandates regarding identity validation and two and third factor end user authentication.
For our Government customers our sole mission is to enable the acceleration of external and internal eGovernment by solving the the problem of authenticating large and diverse web based user constituencies. Anakam pioneered a disruptive technology platform for the implementation of strong authentication, which is secure, infinitely scalable, cost effective over legacy approaches, and very easy to integrate and deploy. Equally important, our system is simple and unobtrusive for the end user. There is no need to carry hard tokens and cards or download any software. Anakam's approach for second factor authentication is to leverage devices that are ubiquitous for end users: cell phones, pda's, home phones, web connected computers and office phones.
With the barriers to adoption removed, federal organizations can now provide an authentication solution which is:
*Secure-Fully compliant with NIST SP 800-63 Level 3
*Scalable-Deploy with confidence to millions of users
*Flexible-Wide variety of delivery mechanisms to adjust risk and user needs
