Infineon Security Platform Solution |
Secure Network Connections
With the Security Platform Solution you can secure your network connections. If you use the Security Platform Integration Services (i.e. the Cryptographic Service Providers for Microsoft Crypto-API and PKCS #11 Crypto-API), then your certificates' private keys will be protected by the Trusted Platform Module.
The following network types are supported:
- Web browser/server connection (Client Authentication)
- Virtual Private Network (VPN)
- Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) or wired LAN
You can use user certificates to authenticate yourself, and computer certificates to authenticate your computer.
