MANAGED AUTHENTICATION SERVICE
Login security options
Your passwords, usernames and logins are valuable to internet fraudsters. They can use this information to gain access to your network, and may cost you money, time and damage to your reputation.
Two-factor authentication arms you with an extra layer of login security. It generates a unique single-use code that is entered along with your usual details.

How Virgin Media Business Managed Authentication Service works
Our Managed Authentication Service (MAS) uses two pieces of information to make sure people are who they say they are: a Personal Identification Number (PIN) and a token.
The PIN and the token together create a single-use password that identifies the user before allowing them access.
We offer a choice of tokens suit various types of users. Choose between hard (a key fob) or soft tokens (on your mobile device) BlackBerry, iPhone, Android and SMS tokens.
Our online portal makes it simple for you to manage both users and their tokens with:
• An easy-to-use dashboard for day-to-day management
• Automation from user provisioning, set-up and self-enrolment, through to reporting facilities
