based on an exact schedule. The schedule is aligned between the
authentication server and the token hardware using built-in
synchronized clocks.

Challenge-Response:

The authentication server prompts the user

with a dynamically generated value — the challenge. The user
enters this challenge value on the token card, and the token card
generates a response value. The user enters this response value
like a password on the handheld computer.

Event-Synchronous

: This system generates and tracks an ordered

series of dynamic passwords. The server matches the passwords
based on the iteration ID.

Plug-in applications

You can create plug-in applications that contain script commands that
you create in order to extend the functionality of the built-in script
commands. A plug-in application is a standard .PRC application that
is installed on your handheld computer just like any other application.
After you install the plug-in application on the handheld computer,
the new script commands can be used in a login script.

Plug-in applications have the following characteristics:

Written in C language

Compiled into a device executable

Called properly from a login script

Able to return control to a login script after it terminates

Created using a development environment that supports the Palm

OS™ software, such as Metrowerks Code Warrior
