12:38 Aladdin introduces a new key etoken pro anywhere | |
| Speaking on the use of smart cards and e-USB-key, we are silent about the software, which requires that the operating system recognize the smart card or USB-key as kriptohranilische. Consequently, their use is restricted to those workstations that have installed special software (driver), or on which these drivers can be installed (unless of course there is how to install them). Company Aladdin Knowlage System introduced to the market technology, or rather a new version of key eToken, which can be used without installing any software on a workstation running Windows. New keys were named eToken Pro Anywhere. Despite the grandiose name, the data keys can be used for authentication of certificates only on the web-resources. For example, to authenticate with this key in the VPN-connection does not succeed. Although this product has just started to evolve in the future, I think, the functional keys will be significantly expanded. Now a few words about how it works. The key eToken Pro Anywhere includes a controller which emulates a USB CD-ROM. When connecting the eToken Pro Anywhere c of this CD-ROM will start a mini-loader, which crawls the internet for pre-configured site, and over HTTP, a small library of downloads and the settings file. This site is written in the key settings in its configuration. After downloading the two of files, the controller turns off the USB key and CD-ROM connects the electronic key itself. However, the system the key is recognized as an HID-compatible device that allows you to connect and use the key without having administrative rights. Downloadable Library as time and contains functions for working with the key (read / write autentifiktsionnoy information). In the configuration file contains a list of those sites on which to authenticate using digital certificates contained in the key. To better understand the schemes of work give you a picture: I think that soon it will be possible to use electronic keys on any computer without installing additional software. The scope of these devices is banking solutions, such keys can be issued to users of online customer-banks; electronic trading platforms; in a corporate environment, access to published corporate resources; and others :-) | |
