"We selected mFoundry on the basis of the superior security and flexibility of their offering," explained Carl Hoburg, senior vice president of eCommerce for Zions. "As the mFoundry platform integrates with our enterprise banking systems we can roll out branded offerings for our many individual retail banking franchises, allowing them to retain their distinctive local imprint. The integration of mobile authentication into our existing RSA / Passmark solution supports our 360 degree view of fraud and risk across all of our customer service channels."
