eTrust PKI Manages Digital Certificates Challenge: Controlling access to files and applications is a complex undertaking for an organization the size of San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, and the security of that information is particularly urgent since the safety of law enforcement officials could be jeopardized if information gets into the wrong hands. IT managers at the Department needed a security solution that not only protected information content, but ensured that only authorized and authenticated users would have access to the information. Moreover, the solution had to be easy to integrate with other systems and easy to use for maximum efficiency. The Solution: eTrust PKI and eTrust Single Sign-On Problem Solved: eTrust PKI manages digital certificates to provide strong authentication of users, support secure email communications, and enhance confidentiality across the Department’s enterprise. It integrates with eTrust Single Sign-On, which gives users a simple way of accessing crime data and law enforcement applications without compromising security. The combination of the two solutions gives the Department a robust, two-factor authentication interface for access to applications within the enterprise and over the Web. Benefits: By using eTrust PKI and eTrust Single Sign-On, the Department has significantly enhanced information security while improving the efficiency of critical info security operations. They combine to simplify and strengthen user access controls across the enterprise, thereby adding protection to users and sensitive data while reducing administrative costs.
