The “Clinerion PNEx Authenticator” app gives users of Clinerion’s Patient Network Explorer additional data security with 2-step authentication.

To protect Patient Network Explorer user accounts from breach, Clinerion is activating a second verification step during the sign-in process. In addition to the password, Patient Network Explorer now includes an authorization step that will run via the “Clinerion PNEx Authenticator” smartphone app.

In this new step when logging in to a Patient Network Explorer account, the app will prompt the user to confirm their identity using their smartphone’s own authentication system, e.g., PIN code, fingerprint, or facial recognition.

“As a data services company, we know more than anyone else the importance of keeping user account data safe,” says Andreas Walter, Chief Technology Officer of Clinerion. “We are committed to defending the security of our users and protecting their account data.”
