The Good
Fast, reliable and simple to use. Waterproof, crushproof and no battery to run out.
The Bad
Initial setup may be difficult for novice users, depending on the function. There are only two storage slots at present. If lost or stolen some features cannot be remotely turned off – don’t rely on it solely for authentication.
Conclusion
A cracking RSA style replacement, which is easier, quicker and more affordable to use. No massive server licence to buy or setup. From $25 + VAT per token it is far more affordable than most others and generally works out of the box, without a management console. It is truly a one stop shop since one device could potentially secure Wi-Fi, VPN and be used to login to Windows. Perfect even for the typical home consumer who wants to secure a password store.
