On Feb. 19, 2010, Toppan Printing Co., Ltd. launched sales of TopCert, an IC card authentication and management solution for employee ID cards that is compatible with Microsoft Windows.
By using TopCert as the operating base required when introducing "Smart Card Logon" for logging on to PCs using IC employee ID cards, companies that have constructed an internal system using Windows Server OS can construct a security base that is extremely cost effective. As an operating base for Microsoft Certificate Services, this solution enables management of the lifecycles of IC cards and electronic certificates that are issued.
Security measures at companies are being continually enhanced. Such measures include the introduction of IC cards for employee ID cards as a means of preventing leaks of personal information and enabling safe access to networks. However, increasing IT costs for security enhancement have become an issue.
One method of enhancing security is to implement management by issuing each employee with an ID card that contains an electronic certificate. TopCert is an IC card authentication and management solution that has been designed using Toppan Printing’s know-how in IC card issuance and operation. It provides support for the operation of IC cards using Microsoft Certificate Services, from the start of introduction at a company up to full scale operation, and significantly reduces the operational workload of administrators.
