Xi-Sign PKI


Authentication for PKI infrastructures with Secure PIN Entry


■ Xi-Sign PKI targets large corporations with PKI infrastructures wishing to roll out a strong authentication and signing solution with secure PIN management.

■ Connected to the PC with the USB port, Xi-Sign PKI supports PKI applications based on a smart card, to perform strong authentication and digital signature.

■ Xi-Sign PKI complies with PC/SC standard. This standard enables the PC to communicate with the smart card, ignoring the reader’s specificities. Xi-Sign PKI can be substituted to any other PC/SC reader. Then it provides additional security functions thanks to its Secure PIN Entry mechanism.
 


Secure PIN entry



■  Xi-Sign PKI features a secure PIN entry management that enables the user to locally enter his PIN code on the reader keyboard : this code is directly presented to the chip card, without going through the PC.

■ As no data is transferred to the PC during the PIN entry, there are no risks of compromising these sensitive data, even if the PC runs rogue software like Trojan horses, Keyloggers or other Spyware.
 



Highly flexible



■ Xi-Sign PKI offers the adequate flexibility for PKI applications. It can easily integrate with most market-standard environments and middleware.

■  Xi-Sign PKI contains no sensitive data or secrets. Its Secure PIN Entry functionality ensures a secured handling of PIN information: it is never disclosed to the PC and therefore cannot be compromised.
