When you consider the amount of identity and bank theft occurring on the Internet today, you realize that it is paramount to create security wherever possible. It doesn’t matter who left the door open once a trojan has been placed on your computer. But how do you make a password sophisticated enough to thwart hackers, yet simple enough to be used by a child? That is why Stelor Technologies created PiXkey™ security. Kids (and adults) don’t need to remember long alphanumeric passwords because PiXkey™ creates ‘above industry standard’ passwords when the user selects just a few simple, easy-to-remember pictures.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Digits

The reason that only a few images in PiXkey™ are so strong is because each picture in actuality represents a token of a highly complex numbering sequence derived through a series of advanced mathematical formulas. It means that a 5-picture password has the strength of a 2000 bit password, unknown even to the user and never transmited in a clear form. That’s just the beginning.

The result is an authentication solution that is impervious to a keystroke attack, a very strong obstacle to phishing, and yet simple enough for a child to use.

PiXkey™ has value far beyond children’s services.

It provides an authentication mechanism more secure than what today’s banks have to offer for ATMs and online banking, more secure than the user name and passwords of most online commerce and service sites, and more secure and cost efficient to manage than today’s enterprise network access solutions. Yet, it’s so simple to use that it also serves as a child’s computer access password.

Combined with Stelor’s KidsOs™, this creates a highly secure virtual cocoon for a child to access and use a computer or Internet within the guidelines and oversight of an adult.

If your company needs a more reliable and cost-effective authentication solution, either in a stand-alone version or to embed within your products, let us help you find out how PiXkey™ can work for you.
