Overview Configuration Feature Operation System

'KSignPKI PRO (Professional)' is a critical security foundation that provides trusted user authentication service on Windows NT/2000/2003.
'KSignPKI PRO' can be also integrated into Unix, Linux and other operation system environments as well as supporting convenience GUI(Graphic User Interface) function to facilitate easy of use.



'KSignPKI PRO(KSignPKI Professional)' is a PKI solution that provides authentication service to safely transact data and validate identity when exchanging data on Internet between sender and receiver.

'KSignPKI PRO' was built to operate in MS Windows NT Server under complying 'KSignPKI' technology expertise experience.

Windows NT- based platform
  MS Windows NT is probably the most popular choice for small and medium sized businesses data server. Therefore, 'KSignPKI PRO' is built to operate in MS Windows NT and provide friendly environment to existing system administrators.
Convenient facilities / Easy of use
  Support GUI(Graphical User Interface) function to accommodate easy of use, and provide audit management for administrators to easily receive directory information and administrate the system.
Low price/Cost effective
  KSignPKI PRO is a suitable choice for small and medium sized businesses with having small amount of budget to deploy the system or expand the existing system in the future
In fact, it is relatively cheaper to deploy the system in MS Windows NT platform than in Unix platform. Organizations/enterprises with KSignPKI PRO system will save large amount of costs since KSignPKI PRO requires less resources, maintenance and system analysis.
Integrated with other platforms
  A certificate that was issued by 'KSignPKI PRO' has no restrictions or limitations on using it on Unix, Linux and Windows NT. Therefore, it will be easily integrated with existing operation system.

KSignPKI PRO IN USE

As the PKI system, 'KSignPKI PRO' is deployed in Ministry of Education and Human Resources Development for the 'Digital Document Transaction System' to ensure secure data transaction between universities in the country. Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute and Kangwon Land asino have deployed 'KSignPKI PRO' for their groupware security. KSIGN has supplied 'KSignPKI PRO' to Daeduk University, Mokpo National University and Dongshin University for the purpose of educating security specialists.
If constructing CA system with using the groupware of a company, then employees of a company will be provided with strong security features. It is not hard to imagine that a company will gain safer and trusted working environment as well as providing reliable service to customer as the result.
Especially, It is essential to deploy 'KSignPKI PRO' for enterprises engaged in eCommerce or educational institutions lively exchanging important digital document under the supervision of Ministry of Education & Human Resources Development.
In addition, 'KSignPKI PRO' can be deployed for Internet banking, online stock trading, enterprise groupware, eCommerce, digital payment, ticket reservation, and various certificate issuances where verifying user identity means the critical importance.
'KSignPKI PRO' is capable of interoperating with the Data Validation and Certificate Server (DVCS), Key Management Infrastructure(KMI), Extranet Access Management(EAM), PKI-based Conditional Access System(CAS), Data Encryption Solution(SWAT), Application Security Toolkit (KSignCASE) and other several PKI products.
