Two bundles for maximum security at software and hardware level
The right protection software in combination with supplementary hardware can significantly increase security for users. Cooperation with a partner in the hardware sector is therefore a logical step. From a technical point of view, the software solutions from ESET and the hardware from REINER SCT complement each other and thus offer customers and partners significantly more protection.
Together, ESET and REINER SCT are offering partners and customers two attractive product bundles:
- The Banking package contains the tan TAN generator, which has been tried and tested millions of times. Jack® photo QR from REINER SCT and ESET HOME Security Premium. With the tan Jack® photo QR is a TAN generator that is used for secure online banking transactions. ESET HOME Security Premium offers users multi-layered protection against cyber threats, e.g. thanks to anti-phishing. In addition, financial transactions are encrypted and insecure search results are flagged as such for users. Price (gross): RRP 79.90 euros.
- The Authenticator package offers ESET HOME Security Premium and the new REINER SCT Authenticator mini, a 2FA hardware with TOTP that can secure over 100 online accounts.

Further bundles planned.
The two packages for private users are just the beginning of a successful collaboration between REINER SCT and ESET. The two manufacturers are already planning a further cooperation for the B2B sector in the second half of 2024.
