Product Description

SafeNet IDPrime Virtual (IDPV) is a PKI-based software authenticator that uses latest innovation in software-based smart token technology to combine the strong two-factor security of a smart card. It is cost effective and convenient for the software authentication. IDPV emulates the functionality of physical smart cards used for authentication, email, data encryption, and digital signing to enable the use cases such as VDI, BYOD, backup, and mobility on any device. It secures user private key on HSM with user authentication from OIDC compatible Identity providers (IDPs).

Release Description

SafeNet IDPrime Virtual v2.8.0 includes bug fixes from the previous version.

Default Password

Virtual IDPrime cards are supplied with the following default token password: “000000” (6 zeros) and the Administrator Password must be entered using 48 zeros.

Password Recommendations

We strongly recommend changing all device passwords upon receipt of a token/ smart card as follows:

• User PIN should include at least 8 characters of different types.

• PIN character types should include upper case, lower case, numbers, and special characters.

  For more information, refer to the ‘Security Recommendations’ section in SafeNet IDPrime Virtual Server-Client Product Documentation.
