CHICAGO—Aladdin Knowledge Systems, Inc. eToken announced Pizza Hut UK has deployed Aladdin's eToken employee identification tool systemwide.
According to a news release, eToken is a USB authentication device about the size of a house key. It offers users and IT security administrators a fully portable, cost-effective means to authenticate users and digitally "sign" sensitive business transactions. It replaces the organization's previous RSA SecureID solution.
Pizza Hut UK oversees 500 outlets, 350 of which are dine-in units.
"Our previous RSA SecureID solution proved to be complicated and slow for our users," said Richard Fox, project manager for Pizza Hut UK. "eToken will provide a cost effective solution, while also allowing us to manage the solution ourselves."
