Thursday 1 September 2011 13:23 CET | News

Financial services provider ING Belgium has entered a partnership with Dutch digital security company Gemalto to deploy the latter’s Ezio suite of authentication services.

Via Gemalto’s authentication service, ING Belgium is set to deliver eBanking protection for its online banking customers. Gemalto has also provided a full set of complementary services including server integration, packaging and direct delivery of the Ezio Classic card readers to ING Belgium customers anywhere in the world. The Ezio Classic reader makes use of the smart banking cards that the ING customers already have, to generate a one-time-password for secure access to their bank account online as well as signing online transactions.

Additionally, the authentication service enables ING’s customers to start banking online and provides them with the ability to bank from anywhere from any device with an internet connection.

In recent news, Gemalto has been selected by Slovakia-based financial services provider UniCredit Slovakia to provide the Optelio contactless stickers for the latter’s first commercial mobile payments deployment.

Gemalto delivers electronic passports and identity cards, two-factor authentication devices for online protection, smart credit/debit and contactless payment cards, as well as subscriber identification modules (SIM) and universal integrated circuit cards (UICC) in mobile phones.
