Security / PKI Manager |
|
|
|
A management environment: various Smart Cards automatically tied to operating systems and applications.
|
|
There exists quite a number of widely spread programs and standard client systems
like Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Netscape Communicator, Netscape Messenger, Adobe Acrobat, PGP, Lotus Notes
having in common functions and interfaces designed with a vision such that today these packages can seamlessly be employed together with
Smart Cards.
|
|
The joy will be complete for those that succeed in tuning their computers and applications for
Smart Card operation. This is not suitable manually or would require immense efforts, as anyone knowledgeable will readily admit.
|
|
There is no reason to worry; solutions are around the corner. All problems will be taken away by the Security / PKI Manager. With this tool even the somewhat inexperienced user will within moments refine his Windows desktop for secure
Smart Card-based operation.
|
Tasks taken over by the Security Manager (firmly disliked anyway):
initializing registries correctly, distributing Smart Card stored certificates onto certificate directories, proficiently configuring one's applications, installing service providers and interfaces for multiple
Smart Card support (SEFIROT Cryptographic Service Provider, PKCS#11 interface).
|
|
Standard interfaces like Microsoft's Crypto API will be supported such that all application programs with an interface to the Microsoft Crypto API may be utilized at once with
Smart Cards. Similarly for PKCS#11 based programs.
|
|
With the Security / PKI Manager's efforts complete one has immediately at hand a collection of
Smart Card based services for the applications supported like:
|
|
digitally signing documents
|
|
digitally signing e-mail incl. attachments
|
|
en-/decrypting protected information (confidential mail)
|
|
server and client authentication while setting up secure SSL/TLS connections.
|
|
|
One may well be surprised and enjoy to see how quickly one's applications can be switched to
Smart Card operation. This is a well-substantiated promise - no other product is presently on the market with similar
performance.
