All-in-One device for authentication and encryption

The powers to be want me to research an all-in-one device that can be
used for data encryption and password authentication. Authentication for
windows 2000, websites and vpn devices (such as Cisco) and file
encryption. Is there such an animal?  Can smart cards do it all (if the
device is smart card compatible - I suppose)  Is there a device that can
plug into a usb port? 

I have been looking into securid, smart cards, efs, etc but this isn't
good enough.  It's budgeting time and they want a consolidated solution
that will save money.  God help me.

Any suggestions or input is greatly appreciated


Thank you
Jennifer Fountain
