Short Take: Raptor embeds CryptoCard tokens in its firewall

CryptoCard and firewall vendor Raptor Systems said Raptor customers can authenticate users with CryptoCard tokens directly from Raptor's Eagle firewall. The two companies have embedded CryptoCard's authentication server into the Eagle Firewall Version 4.0 for NT and Unix. That means CryptoCard tokens work directly with the firewall rather than with a separate authentication or access server, streamlining the authentication process.
