"eCommerce Security Solutions"
Only properly authenticated users, or shared group confidantes, should be able to access your data and files. If a hacker or an unauthorised insider has broad access to large parts of a network, that means unrestricted access to the all the files and documents therein unless they are protected, for example using strong cryptography.
But how can you achieve the requisite protection without the spectre of overhead and difficulty? How can you achieve real network security relatively easily and without a host of problems?
The Solution: PENS!
In a PENS protected system, each area of the network is divided into smaller encrypted sections called domains which hold the the personal or sensitive files. these are all encrypted using a personal encryption key and all password protected.
What Is PENS?
PENS is an on-the-fly encryption system with either 56-bit DES or, new for Version 1.5, 128-bit IDEA and Triple DES algorithms for data encryption and 1024-bit RSA for key exchange and authentication. Users are given their own encrypted domains with which they can protect their files. They can also let other users enter these domains - should the administrator allow that - making worksharing easier. All they have to do is send their keys to the person who requires them.
How does the user encrypt?
‘On the fly’ means that the user need do nothing: when a file is saved or closed in a PENS domain, PENS automatically encrypts it. If the user drag-and-drops a file into his\her domain, PENS will, again, automatically encrypt it.
And decrypt?
When a valid user opens an encrypted file, PENS automatically turns it back into clear text.
Does it secure Remote Users
PENS is compatible with NT RAS (Remote Access Server). PENS Users are protected by the fact that encrypted files are only decrypted at the individual computer so even if someone could hijack the connection, they could not read what was being communicated on it. In addition, all those important files on the remote desktop or laptop are, of course, encrypted.
What Else Can It Do?
Single Sign-On
The problem with security for a lot of people is that it adds to the complexity of using a PC. Users do not want to have to log on to NT/2000 or 95/98 (new in version 1.5) and then have another authentication hurdle to negotiate to get into their encrypted domain. Single Sign-On (SSO) synchronises the two passwords so that only one is required.
And More!
PENS offer a range of functions and faclities to support your environment. As well as stringent security, it offer unprecedented flexibility.
