Etoken TMS management

Typhoon87

Hello,

We just did the upgrade from Safeguard Easy 4.50 to Entrpise 5.50. So far it has gone okay with one moderate exception. We use the Aladdin Etoken and all of our users already have tokens and understand the basics of how to use them. Whcihc brings us to the problem. The Etokens we have curretnly distributed are formatted by the Aladdin TMS (Token Management Services). I spent an afternoon on the phone with Support only to learn that enterprise writes to the tokens in a diffrent way and every token must be reissued.

I was just wondering if anyone has any kind of connector or brige application that allows Entrpise to read Etokens formatted in the TMS management center. This would reduce the need to look for tokens in two places and the TMS has more options to see when and how tokens are used (more reports and better databse views of who has tokens ect.)

If not can a feature request be made to allow this?

    Thomas,

    Is there anyway that I can reconfigure the TMS management center to format the tokens in the  SGN format so I can at least continue to use that database to manage the tokens?

    TMS offers a much more robust toolset for token lifecylce management than the SGN interface does. I can get down to the point if a machine is on the network or vpn'd in I can tell what user,machine and how long thier current session has been opened through the auditing. I can see when tokens were created, when they were modified, serial number, model number, status, how many token a user has had, ex If they lost two and are now on thier third one I can still see the info for the previous ones they had I can see if they were lost/broken, I can create temp logons with then ect. SGN has nowhere this level of functilonalty so this issue is not just one of training and manpower issues but also of feature sets that over the last two and a half years of using SNE have become usefull for tracking and management of users and tokens.
