CSPid
CSPid is a virtual smartcard that maintains a central repository for private keys and X.509 certificates. It provides a secure environment for cryptographic operations applications can access via Java, PKCS#11, or Microsoft CAPI.
CSPid stores a user's credentials in a single encrypted file on any designated storage device (e.g., a local hard drive, a network share, a flash drive, or any other removable memory device). That credential store may be opened by CSPid on any platform once its owner has entered their password.
In this way CSPid allows users to effortlessly migrate their public and private keys to any workstation in an OS-independent manner, without the need to physically replicate those keys.
CSPid's programmable interface simplifies certificate lifecycle management. By giving security officers control over employee credentials throughout their enterprise, it reduces help desk costs and PKI training requirements.
Security officers can configure CSPid to force password change at designated intervals, prohibit password reuse and enforce password quality requirements on cryptographic keys.
