Swekey, the Safe Web Enabler KEY is a new security USB device that wants to help you move quicker and more securely on the web. The Swekey uses U3 type autolaunch execution to bypass all that annoying user interaction that can slow things down. Once things are setup behind the scenes you are required to create an OpenID account. The Swekey saves your OpenID information and automatically logs you into the OpenID system as soon as the Swekey is plugged in. Swekey also has a plan for Corporate branded moiety. The Corporate OpenID/Swekey servers can be bought or commissioned, probably very cheaply considering that all the software is free/open source.
OpenID already has a fair amount of constituent members that should continue to grow. Implementation is fairly simple for system administrators and canned code for integrated logins is popping up more and more often. Joomla, WordPress, Putty and Drupal are just a few of the major Open-Source players that are already compatible. You can purchase yours for $15 from their online store and get a jump on what will likely continue to grow and the needs of online authentication continue to grow.Permanent Link
