Grupo Financiero Ficohsa adopts Entrust tokens

Wednesday, August 17, 2011

Honduras-based banking services provider Grupo Financiero Ficohsa has adopted Entrust’s IndentityGuard Mobile software tokens for strong and mobile authentication.

Grupo Financiero Ficohsa, a four-year customer of Entrust, added the soft token enhancement to service their own clients. Sergio Stefan, vice president of Consumer Banking and Small and Medium Businesses at Grupo Financiero Ficohsa says in a press release that soft tokens fit the company’s client’s lifestyles better, which should help with adoption rates.


The new solution provides Grupo Financiero Ficohsa with a two-factor authentication that protects customer identities and banking transactions.

Entrust partner Sistemas Eficientes S.A. facilitated the agreement with Grupo Financiero Ficohsa and will help the company deploy and migrate to the new system. [end]
