Entrust Security Provider supports full PKI authentication based on a private key as it integrates with SafeNet Authentication Client from Gemalto to provide users with a certificate services solution. The private key can be generated and protected by SafeNet certificate-based strong authentication devices, which protects the integrity of the digital identity. A user need only present the certificate stored on the SafeNet device to authenticate successfully or to perform any other secured operation. An Entrust profile, similar to a digital certificate, contains essential user information held in encrypted form. As the private keys are stored on the SafeNet device, users’ digital identities are not vulnerable, and hostile entities cannot use a stolen digital identity to penetrate the corporate environment.
