CERTIFICATION AUTHORITY AND DIGITAL SIGNATURE

The dependence of companies, organizations and individuals on the electronic form of documents and electronic information exchange is on the rise at present. The issue of credibility and secrecy of such documents has therefore emerged to the forefront of technical interest. In the environment of public Internet, used for the transfer of documents, and desktop computers, used for their storage, it is not possible to do without their stricter protection any more. A simple way to accomplish this is the public key technology using certification authorities.

The public key technology gives you among others the following benefits:

• Digital signature of sent documents
• Ciphering of sent documents
• Verification of the signature of received documents
• Deciphering of received documents
• Ciphering of data stored in a local computer
• Log-in into a computer network

To provide the above functions, IMA s.r.o. offers the following services:

• Initial analysis, concluded with an implementation project
• Installation of the certification authority, including its physical security
• Preparation of operating documentation and operating regulations
• Support software installation
• Delivery of maintenance
• Delivery of chip cards and readers for higher key security

The issued certificates can be used in other fields, too (e.g. e-business, access to www pages etc.). The cards can be also used for other corporate systems, such as attendance, access, boarding etc.
