The Secardeo certBox provides global access to X.509 certificates or PGP keys of different PKIs. The certBox ensures that a user can send encrypted emails or documents without any intervention with standard applications such as MS Outlook to any external recipient. The certBox also serves as a public certificate directory (repository) or as a proxy for an internal directory and enables the encryption for internal receivers by any external partners. The access to the certificates is protected by advanced access control mechanisms.

The search is done automatically via LDAP or HTTP, or manually via HTML browser. Found certificates can be validated in accordance with policy guidelines and transformed into an internal trust structure in a unique way. Furthermore, with a pioneering method end-to-end encryption can be made for any recipient, without requiring them to already have a certificate.

You can use the certBox functions by one of several deployment variants:

• certBox Server - a ready to use 19" Hardware Appliance
• certBox Server - a Virtual Appliance for execution on a VMware Server
• certBox Cluster - a highly available and performant Cluster
• certBox Cloud Services - an instant SaaS solution
