Strong Authentication
Authentication is really all about confirming the identity of a user to a system. In many cases today, authentication is synonymous with a fixed password that may change from time to time. Such authentication suffers from many known vulnerabilities, phishing being the best known. Another drawback of password based authentication, are the hidden running costs of password resets due to the fact that users are password fatigued. Strong authentication systems are designed to bolster the quality of identity claim verification.
Key Management
Cryptographic keys play a central part in securing ATM and POS transactions as well as in online payments and Internet banking. Chiave is a new end-to-end key management solution with the ability to keep track of all the policies governing the generation, storage and ceremonies associated with cryptographic keys.
Hnossa is a key and certification appliance that simplifies mass generation of private keys and certificates based on a public key infrastructure (PKI).
