Platforms:

Win 95/98: Win NT:
Description:

Perhaps the greatest weakness of the Internet is that it is an insecure network - Web traffic between the Browser on your PC and the Web sites you visit, can be viewed or even modified without your knowledge. Such an open channel is obviously unsuitable for secure business communications. Strong 128-bit encryption and strong authentication of the Web Server to the end-user, and vice versa, are essential in securing Web business communications. The strength of the cryptography is the key factor! Weak cryptography, such as 40-bit or 56-bit creates the illusion of security, which may result in users sending sensitive information over what is, in effect, still an open channel. TrustedWeb Express is a simple to install plug-in, available globally, for existing Web Browsers, which provides strong 128-bit encryption, authentication, smart card support and much more. TrustedWeb Express provides an extremely cost-effective means of establishing a highly secure channel with both Intranet and Internet Web sites. Personnel can continue to use their existing Web Browser, eliminating a need for re-training. As it uses the industry standard SSL protocol TrustedWeb Express interoperates with all standard secure web servers.

For users who require more sophisticated security with features such as Role-based Access Control, Single Sign-on, Centralised Administration of users and their privileges, TrustedWeb Express can be easily upgraded to SSE's advanced Intranet/Extranet security solution, TrustedWeb.
