Ireth

Based in Italy, Ireth makes authentication and digital banking software. It belongs to the ITIGroup Corporation, an international holding company, and its work sits where payment security, identity checks and banking services meet. The company says its products protect logins and transactions and let organizations launch financial services under their own brand.

Strong customer authentication with the IAP800 range

The core product line is IAP800, a set of strong customer authentication and anti fraud products that check a user's identity before access to an application, portal, virtual private network or payment is allowed. It is offered both on premises and in the cloud, and it is designed for large user bases in banking, insurance and retail, as well as for enterprise and government use. The company's authentication devices include hardware tokens and display cards, which it says are certified to the OATH standard and to the European payment services rules. The display card versions can carry home banking and payment functions on a single device.

The company says more than 20 million authentication devices have been supplied in the past ten years and describes itself as the main Italian maker and supplier in this field. Its site also says the IAP800 suite was the first strong authentication solution built on the OATH standard.

Smart Bank 800 for neobanking

For organizations that want to offer banking services of their own, the company offers Smart Bank 800, a white label neobanking platform. It lets a client provide banking and loyalty services to its own community under its own brand, with tools that help customers plan their finances and their marketing. The company describes the platform as online, smart and multi-channel, aimed at businesses that want a bank with their own name.

Security consulting and wider use

Alongside the products, Ireth offers assessment, project design, testing and support for security infrastructure. The company argues that its solutions are not limited to banking, and that they apply to any sector where cybersecurity has become essential. Its site says its products are designed for regulated environments and that they are proprietary technology rather than dependent on outside suppliers.

The parent group

The company says it is part of a group that is increasing its holdings in logistics, high technology, digital and energy businesses, and that the group works in authentication, cybersecurity and satellite imagery services.
