"Digital signature" is security technology based on Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to provide clients with authentication, encryption, data integrity, and access denial prevention capabilities. A digital signature is legally accepted for electronic transactions, which is essential in case of conflicts.
To identify an individual, server or several subjects, the certification authority service provider employs electronic identification called "digital certification" which is used as an identity card for computer access or on the internet.
FPT IS's Certification Authority (FPT-CA) ensures legality, high security and user friendly operation for the client. The modern and highly expandable FPT-CA is able to issue and process millions of digital certifications and has been applied in major CA systems around the world including the French Ministries of Finance and National Defense and the e-passport systems used in European countries.
