FTK-300-5 Fortinet FortiToken-300 USB Smart Card Token

FTK-300-5 Overview

The FortiToken 300 is a USB Token for X.509 PKI certificates used in securing Internet transactions for applications including signing/encrypting email, PDF documents, Microsoft Office files, and software, as well as for strong authentication to your VPN or web-based applications. Client certificates are known to provide higher security than One-Time-Password (OTP) tokens for two factor authentication solutions, but the private key of the PKI certificate must be kept secret to be effective. Private keys generated and stored on FortiToken 300 PKI authenticators are more secure than private keys stored as files on local hard disks because FortiToken 300 cannot be coerced to expose the private key.
