Data at Rest Protection

Protecting data at the asset level via data encryption is the ultimate line of defense against unauthorized disclosure of confidential electronic information. Mobile devices containing confidential data can easily be lost or stolen, and data transmitted through a corporate network, or via the internet, can be intercepted. This imposes considerable risk to sensitive data. A data thief hacker, or malicious employee/ex-employee, who is savvy enough to penetrate through all the perimeter security measures employed in a competent network, must still break through the most difficult and final frontier of fortification; data encryption.

Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) & Host Security Modules (HSMs)

SafeNet offers the Hardware Security Module to provide advanced features like direct hardware-to-hardware backup, split user role administration, multi-person authentication, and trusted path authentication coupled with proven security and operational deployment experience in some of the largest PKIs in the world.

These products feature true hardware key management to maintain the integrity of encryption keys. Sensitive keys are created, stored, and used exclusively within the secure confines of the hardware security module (HSM) to prevent compromise.

Identity Tokens & Smart Cards

SafeNet smart cards and SafeNet iKey™'99 USB tokens are secure devices that can hold users credentials, such as passwords, keys, certificates, or biometrics. The devices have an open, flexible operating system that can enable other capabilities such as storing personal information or physical access credentials securely to the device. The cards/tokens can be used in both PKI and non-PKI environments. Whether smart card or USB token, both form factors have identical capabilities and organizations can mix and match card/token types as requirements dictate.

We have all sorts of smart cards and tokens with security, interoperability, convenience, and performance in mind. Used in conjunction with SafeNet's robust client software, the smart cards and tokens are trusted by more customers and partners than any other in the industry.

Smart Card Management System

The CMS (Card Management System) is a Web-based smart card/token and digital credential management solution for enterprises that is used to issue, manage, and support cryptographic smart cards and iKey™'99 USB tokens for identity-based applications throughout the organization. The CMS gives enterprise customers a powerful, interoperable, and secure system that reduces the cost of deploying and supporting smart cards and iKeys. Through innovative, policy-based enrollment features, CMS significantly reduces the time an enterprise spends issuing and managing smart cards/tokens for geographically distributed users.
