SecureMethods Products
The rapid growth of the Internet has fueled the need for increased network
security as more information is shared among and between business partners.
Increasingly, it is of critical importance for businesses and government
to know to a high degree of confidence exactly who is receiving mission
critical information.
PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) is the best available form of authentication
for network applications. However, first generation PKI products have
failed to effectively address this need. First generation products have
two critical flaws.
- They are expensive to use and deploy. Typically, customers pay for
both a server license and a per user seat license each year. This makes
these products expensive to deploy both internally and externally. Additionally,
these products require hiring a full time security expert to manage
the ongoing security infrastructure.
- They are difficult to use. These products require the end user to
be aware of the security application and invoke the software to ensure
the information is secured, and require IT professionals to modify existing
applications.
SecureMethods, with the next generation of PKI solutions, removes both
obstacles to deployment. SecureMethods products provide a complete security
solution and are:
- Unmatched in cost effectiveness
- Unmatched in ease of use
Furthermore, SecureMethods has designed its applications so that the
end user does not need to even be aware that PKI is in place, nor do existing
applications require any modification to enable full PKI authentication
and authorization to work.

The SM Product |
Losing critical files and information
|
|
SM Client enables users to securely
encrypt and digitally sign critical files.
|

Protecting sites containing sensitive information
|
|
SM Gateway identifies and authenticates
users based on certificates that SM CA generates.
SM Gateway securely protects sensitive sites and the critical information
they contain by ensuring that only properly registered users can
access these sites.
|
|
Maintaining an audit trail or
ensuring traceability
|
|
SM Gateway automatically logs and reports
all attempts to access protected sites.
|
|
Cumbersome security practices
|
|
SM Client enables uses to quickly and
easily encrypt and digitally sign files and attachments. Users can
easily install the certificates that SM Gateway uses to transparently
identify them. This means that users do not have to stop and log
into a site that SM Gateway protects.
This ease of use helps to reinforce the best security practices
and ensures that they are consistently employed.
