Security and Certificate Management Systems
Most of the applications requiring security and using asymmetric cryptography
for digital signatures, need a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI).
This particularly includes certifi cate management systems which issue
and administer certifi cates for all participants.
We have developed certifi cate management systems which generate
certifi cates according to X.509v3 and manage them (LDAP
Server). The software has been developed as part of smart card
projects achieved by us. These certifi cate management systems are designed
to generate certifi cates, which integrate key systems for elliptic
curve cryptography.
A security management system is needed as well, which enables the
online access to components of the security system to exchange key
systems, to change access rights, to collect log books, to control
critical device parameters, to set or adjust date and time etc. Our
institute has developed a security management system, which
enables the provider of devices to control them remotely
and execute security and critical functions. These functions
extended by software download of approved modules allow the complete,
secure and approved online administration as well as a trustworthy
data exchange.
