Card Management System Integration Made Easy: Tools for Enrollment and Management of Certificates

Overview Many organizations are turning to two-factor authentication solutions to verify the identities of users on their networks. A significant number of Entrust customers use Card Management Systems (CMS) to enroll users with certificates that are stored on smart cards or tokens. (Note that throughout this paper references to smart cards include both smart cards and other cryptographic tokens, such as USB tokens.) Using Entrust Authority Toolkits, CMS products can enroll users for managed or unmanaged certificates thereby helping to address a broad range of government and commercial enrollment requirements. This paper outlines tools developed within the Entrust Authority portfolio to facilitate easier smart card management system integration with Entrust products for both managed and unmanaged certificate solutions.
