Company Description

Digital Authentication Technologies develops Contextual Location FingerprintsTM CLFTM, a technology for location-based authentication.

Digital Authentication Technologies (DAT) has pioneered a concept and set of enabling technologies collectively known as Contextual Location Fingerprints (CLF). At its core, CLF provides a new approach to using location as an additional authentication factor within a broad set of policy-definition/policy-enforcement tools. Unlike classical approaches to location verification, such as geo-location, triangulation and IP address look-up, CLF technology is much more precise, e.g. Room 207 of Building A, and does not suffer from the same spoofability concerns inherent in existing technologies. If properly integrated into the larger ecosystem of cyber security management tools, CLF technology has the potential to greatly reduce cyber security events related to compromises in critical infrastructure and information systems.
