Tomorrow’s CA technology today
Secure Office provides a full-featured certificate
authority (CA) for specific application PKIs. Secure Office CA scales
up to 60,000 users, supporting large demand for signing operations,
PKI queries, and certificate requests. Secure Office Persys CA is
designed for fault tolerance and component redundancy.
Integrated Certificate Publishing
Secure Office Persys CA provides an integrated directory. Every time you generate a smart card, the corresponding user certificate is automatically
published to the database that will use it to authenticate the user throughout the PKI. Vendor purchased cards necessitate certificates being manually fetched or delivered on a disk and read into the database.
Ease of Deployment and Management
Secure Offiice Persys CA fits seamlessly into an organization's
existing network infrastructure and works with standard applications
such as Netscape Communicator, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Outlook
Express, Lotus Domino, Microsoft IIS, and Netscape Enterprise Server.
Using a distributed architecture, Secure Office can deploy multiple
certificate authorities to handle high volume certificate requests.
Persys CA is cost-effective, requiring no upgrades
or plug-ins for existing desktop applications and issuing both soft and hard certificates at substantially less cost than public certification authority services. Persys CA is designed for PKCS #10 certificate
requests, PKCS #15 compliant EID cards (recently written into law
as the standard for legally binding digital signature) and tokens
and IPsec compliant firewalls and VPNs.
Persys CA publishes the industry standard X.509 v3
user certificates to the included LDAP directory,
assuring interoperablility with PKIX
compliant public key infrastructures, enabling open network PKI.
