Furtwangen, August 04, 2014 – Whether HBCI or TAN procedure – the “cyberJack go plus” chip card reader from REINER SCT can do both!
This makes it the only reader in the world that can be used so flexibly for online banking.
The device is also certified by the German Banking Industry and therefore offers the highest level of protection currently available. German banks rely on different procedures for secure online banking.
They range from iTAN lists and smsTAN to chipTAN or HBCI procedures.
Often several variants are offered in parallel, but rarely all available procedures.
Bank customers who have accounts with different credit institutions must therefore inevitably use different protection procedures.
The more secure the procedure needs to be, the more devices need to be purchased, such as a TAN generator for the chipTAN procedure and a reader for HBCI.
Innovation from the Black Forest
This is where the new innovation from the Black Forest comes in: the “cyberJack go plus” chip card reader from REINER SCT can be used both as a reader and as a TAN generator.
Both variants are currently regarded as the most secure methods for online banking.
Experts, such as the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) or representatives of state criminal investigation offices, recommend using a second authentication factor, i.e. a TAN generator or a reader with a keypad, when banking online.
With such devices, the transaction data is shown on the display for verification purposes and can be checked by the user before the transaction is approved.
However, if the bank customer only uses an smsTAN procedure with their smartphone or a TAN list, this important security step is missing.
The “cyberJack go plus” also achieves the highest level of protection thanks to the certification of the German Banking Industry – the reader can bear the “Secoder security-tested, recommended by banks and savings banks” seal.
Secure on the move too
The special feature of the ultra-slim reader is that it can be used both at home on a PC and on the move with a notebook.
Thanks to the integrated mass memory, owners can save their account management software on the device and thus have the highest level of security even when on the move.
The reader’s sophisticated procedure requires no technical knowledge and works without installation.
Over 11 million users already secure their online transactions with devices from REINER SCT.
