How it works
For an iPhone or Android user to encrypt e-mails to external recipients, their X.509 certificates are required. These are available via public certificate directories for retrieval via LDAP. In order for a mobile client to access such directory services, the certificate search queries in the e-mail exchange protocol must be appropriately converted and forwarded.
With Secardeo certMode, a seamless conversion of certificate search queries from mobile e-mail apps in LDAP is carried out according to a patented procedure. This means that global certificate retrievals can be made from many connected public key infrastructures, for example with the Secardeo certBox.
Secardeo certMode is a certificate retrieval service for mobile devices that enables global end-to-end encryption for native iOS or Android e-mail apps. For this, certMode acts as a proxy between the mobile device and the e-mail server. certMode retrieves the required external partner certificates using an LDAP service like Secardeo certBox. By this, a mobile user may encrypt S/MIME e-mails to internal and external partners without any effort.
