Feitian ePass PKI token, Keyparc complete interoperable validation

Monday, October 3, 2011

Feitian Technologies announced the completion of interoperability validation of its ePass2003 strong authentication smart token and Bloombase Keyparc file protection suite.

Designed to meet NIST FIPS 140-2 security standard, Feitian ePass2003 is a purpose designed PKI cryptographic processing security hardware for secure storage of digital certificates and private keys. Inside the core of ePass2003 lies a micro processor smart chip which is validated at Common Criteria EAL5+. And with CCID driverless plug-and-play support, ePass2003 enables enterprises to deploy quickly and efficiently.


ePass2003 supports standard-based security interfaces including MS CAPI, PKCS#11 and Microsoft Smart Card Minidriver, allowing end customers to sign-on Windows and execute RSA 2048, AES and ECC, and the like cryptographic operations with a single piece of hardware.

Bloombase Keyparc File Protection Suite is the application and user-transparent file encryption software for enterprise end users and professional users, used in a wide variety of environments and applications from laptop, desktop to tablets and beyond. [end]
