Certgate Smart Card microSD 1GBStore this angel in big sizePremiere at the GSMA Mobile World in Barcelona: certgate's Smart Card microSD, a hardware-based band-aid to assure acute data, is now accessible for BlackBerry devices.
Nuremberg/Barcelona, 10 February 2009: With its different accouterments token, certgate GmbH offers an ergonomic band-aid to enhance abstracts assurance on BlackBerry accessories acclimated in acute environments - a band-aid by far above to software-based ones. In 2007, the adolescent Nuremberg-based provider of IT aegis solutions had launched the aboriginal microSD agenda common featuring both, a cryptographic processor and the absolute functionality and aegis of a Smart Card. Now the agenda is aswell acceptable for use in the BlackBerry's anamnesis agenda slot, so it is no best all-important to affix to alien accessories for affidavit or encryption.
The Canadian-based architect of the BlackBerry, RIM, has been alms addition band-aid for email abstracts protection: A account accessory is accessible as accessory, enabling users to encrypt stored and/or beatific abstracts by agency of claimed certificates. According to IT aegis experts, this technology prevents acceptance to acute abstracts by crooked bodies and, provided a absolute centralized aegis action is in place, appropriately enables adaptable accessories to be acclimated in security-sensitive environments such as government authorities or high-tech enterprises. Still, the catechism is: Who wants to backpack about an added account accessory and a check-card-sized Smart Card in accession to their smartphones?
Then there are software-based encryption solutions, based on application the boot-up argumentation to abundance certificates and encryption abstracts on the device. The botheration with these solutions is that they are too accessible to be acclimated for business purposes.
"No admiration there is boundless skepticism in security-sensitive business fields if it comes to application adaptable devices," says Dr. Paschalis Papagrigoriou, CEO of certgate GmbH, "but our new hardware-based aegis solution, which now is aswell accessible for BlackBerry, closes antecedent assurance gaps. What's more, it is simple and adequate to use." Papagrigoriou goes on to explain the advantages of the new solution: "Since our certgate Smart Card microSD does not crave any alien readers or added devices, with codes generated anon on the cavity card, it is around absurd to spy them. Even if the accessory is absent or baseborn the abstracts is safe acknowledgment to able and able encryption."
With added than 11 actor users worldwide, the BlackBerry can be advised the a lot of accepted and broadly acclimated adaptable advice device. Without it, avant-garde business activity would be about unthinkable, in accurate for managers. However, if the French government in 2007 banned business-related use of the BlackBerry by government admiral due to aegis concerns, this reignited accessible agitation about the assurance of acute abstracts on adaptable devices. In Germany, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) has been admonishing adjoin application the BlackBerry "in aegis acute areas of accessible administering and in businesses threatened by automated espionage". And above corporations like Audi or Total accept continued been prohibiting the use of BlackBerry accessories aural their IT functions due to aegis concerns.
The certgate Smart Card microSD is accessible not alone for BlackBerry: A adaptation for accessories active on Microsoft operating systems has been accustomed in the bazaar for absolutely some time, and is acclimated by acclaimed organizations in Germany and added countries to ensure safe abstracts communications with adaptable devices. The Cards are accessible with either 512 MB or 1 GB beam memory.

certgate GmbH - certgate PreBoot Authenticator revolutionises abounding deejay encryption
certgate PreBoot Authenticator bases on the certgate SmartCard microSDStore this angel in big sizeNuremberg, 28.10.2009, The Nuremberg IT aegis action certgate GmbH is presenting its latest development in the enhancement of accepted deejay encryption programs. The certgate PreBoot Authenticator is a aegis badge that replaces circuitous passwords with awful defended two-factor authentification application a acute agenda and acute agenda PIN.
People who ambition to assure the abstracts stored on the harder drive of their PC or laptop from adept or awful acceptance nowadays usually await on one of the abundant harder deejay encryption programs accessible on the market. “On-the-fly” encryption with up to 256 bit keys provides best security. But like every cryptographic application, abounding deejay encryption is alone as safe as its weakest link: the countersign provided by the user. A ample amount of abeyant advance scenarios for abrasive abounding deejay encryption programs entail “cracking” the password.
In adjustment to be able for animal force attacks as able-bodied as alleged “social engineering”, continued alphanumeric passwords are appropriate that are as accidental as accessible and which cover both appropriate characters and a mix of high and lower case. TrueCrypt, one of the a lot of accepted encryption programs, recommends at atomic 20 characters. But who can bethink a countersign that long, let abandoned access it after authoritative a mistake?
This is absolutely area the certgate PreBoot Authenticator comes in: the aegis badge based on the certgate SmartCard microSD saves passwords of any breadth and aggravation on its crypto chip. Here the countersign is not clear and cannot be manipulated. In the pre-boot appearance users analyze themselves to the badge by entering their acute agenda PIN, and the badge again assiduously the countersign to the encryption software. This accompanying removes addition aegis risk, namely the buried tracking of keysrokes via keylogging.
In adverse to acceptable dongles, the certgate PreBoot Authenticator meets the accomplished aegis standards. The countersign is abnormally encrypted with an RSA 2048 bit key and is appropriately about absurd to read. Access is abundantly anchored application a analogously simple acute agenda PIN, back there is a absolute to the amount of apocryphal entries allowed.
This makes operating abounding deejay encryption programs appreciably added user-friendly. It is no best all-important to bethink or access continued passwords. Instead, two-factor authentification ensures greater aegis for the “weak spot” in encryption applications and eliminates the a lot of important point of advance acclimated by hackers.
Thanks to its acute bendability (15 x 2.5 x 17.5 mm) the certgate PreBoot Authenticator about absolutely disappears from appearance into the USB port. It can be acclimated with all operating systems and functions anxiously with all accordant password-based abounding deejay encryption programs.
Naturally, all the added appearance of the certgate SmartCard band-aid for Windows can be acclimated with the PreBoot Authenticator. This includes Windows Smartcard Logon, internet aegis and email encryption as able-bodied as, in aggregate with added applications, VPN clients, the Adobe certificate signature and added functions which are based on certificates.
The certgate PreBoot Authenticator will be apparent next at the CARTES & Identification 17-19 November in Paris.
