PKI construction services and TARGUSYS PKI card system

摘要

Public key infrastructure (PKI) is a security infrastructure using the public key cryptosystem. It is considered an effective way to avoid risks such as unauthorized interception, modification, and fabrication in electronic commerce via the Internet. A certification authority is an important entity which issues a certificate on PKI systems. It is not easy to construct and operate a reliable certification authority. Toshiba provides PKI construction services for the construction of a certification authority. We have also developed the TARGUSYS PKI card system, which provides a highly secure solution by a certificate stored in a smart card.
