Digi-CA™ Service In Detail

The Managed Service

PDF [1] The principal difference between Digi-CA™ Service Xs, Xp and Xg is the level of integration and customization you require. For example, Digi-CA™ Service Xs is provided as a standard Service and there is no customization or integration offered. The Digi-CA™ Service Xp offers language localization of the Digi-CA™ [2] Control Centre and the end user interfaces and Xg could be a highly integrated Service involving various databases, synchronization and other features.

There are seven versions of Digi-CA™ Service, each with self-explanatory names:

    1 Digi-SSL™ [3] Service - is for SSLs in bulk (5 or more)

    2 Digi-ISP Service™ - SSLs for ISPs and ICTs

    3 Digi-IPSec Service™ - is for IPSec Certificates

    4 Digi-Access™ [4] Service - provides two factor authentication [5]

    5 Digi-Mail™ [6] Service - provides secure email [7]

    6 Digi-ID™ Service - is for multi-use Digi-IDs™

    7 Digi-CA™ Service - hosted and managed Digi-CA™



Each of these services is explained in detail in the following sub sections and the principal difference between Digi-CA™ Service Xs, Xp and Xg in each case relates to the type of Digital Certificate [7] it issues and the degree of integration and customization required.

  • Digi-SSL™ Service
    • You may be seeking a simple solution for getting SSL Certificates or perhaps you have a larger and more specific set of requirements. You need many different Digital Certificates for several organizational divisions and locations. Whether your requirement is large or small, Digi-SSL Server™ easily meets your needs. And to automate the entire life cycle of your SSL environment, see the Automated & Authenticated Certificate Delivery™ System [8]

      Traditionally, organizations have to wait hours or even days for SSL Certificates. Other Certificate solutions are cumbersome, labor intensive and expensive. With Digi-SSL™ Service these issues and others are completely removed.

      • Request any Certificate and it is delivered in minutes
      • Multiple organizations, locations, and departments can all use the same system
      • Layered Security Access, enables super users, managers and ‘Read Only’ access
      • Language localization and multiple language interfaces and help files are included
      • Customizable Automated Certificate Renewal notification – no more missed renewal dates!
      • Limitless domain names are added without charge
      • Total Certificate ‘Life Cycle’ Management for all your Digi-SSLs™ using one single system
      • Total Digi-SSL™ Control without the overhead of building, managing and supporting it
      • Automated accounting facility to reduce accounts administration time

      You provide us with a list of domains that you need secured and before the Digi-SSL™ Service is activated these names are thoroughly Validated. All domain name validations [9] are provided free-of-charge and once active, the Administrator is able to issue and revoke any Digi-SSL™ for any domain name in the system.


  • Ease of Migration
    • Digi-SSL™ Service has out performed even its best-known rivals by using the latest in Digital Certificate and Internet technologies offered by the Digi-CA™ [2] Certificate Engine core. It offers you a totally flexible, fast, convenient and easy to use Service. The online flash presentation of Digi-CA™ [10] explains its benefits in a simple and easy to understand manner.

      Moving from your current SSL ordering system to the Digi-SSL™ Service couldn’t be easier. If you install the Automated & Authenticated Certificate Delivery™ System, the entire life cycle of your SSL environment is migrated and managed automatically.


  • Digi-ISP Service™
    • The Digi-ISP Service™ is almost identical to the Digi-SSL™ Service but with one important distinction: The Internet Service Provider [ISP] conducts the Validations process under license from Digi-Sign. Once the contract between the ISP and Digi-Sign is signed, the ISP then has the ability to issue and Digi-SSL™ Certificate to any domain it chooses.
      This Service is not limited to ISPs and can include Information & Communication Technology [ICT] companies and IT Professionals that need the flexibility and convenience that Digi-ISP™ offers.

      The Digi-ISP Service™ can be operational in a matter of days (depending on the level of customization required) and there is little or no training required as it has been designed so that even ‘non-technical’ people can easily understand how to use it. Combine all of the above benefits with the built-in Account Management facility for customer billing and this becomes a powerful application to any ISP arsenal of services.


  • Digi-IPSec Service™
    • Digi-IPSec Service™ is the Managed CA that enables you to issue IP Secure Digital Certificates suitable for VPN security, device-to-device authentication and specialist authentication Digital Certificates for your network environment. As with the Digi-SSL™ Service, to automate the entire life cycle of your SSL environment you should consider the innovative Automated & Authenticated Certificate Delivery™ System

  • Digi-Access™ Service
    • Digi-Access™ Service is the simple to deploy and manage, two factor authentication secure access method that can’t be compromised. In most cases, the issuing and management of the Digi-Access™ [4] Service is simpler than administering a database of usernames and passwords. There is no specialist skills needed to incorporate it into your system(s) as most IT systems are x.509 compliant and are already configured to work with Digi-Access™.

Digi-Access™ uses Digi-IDs™ to authenticate individual users to the server and all web server software (even OEM versions like Oracle’s®) work with it. Within a few hours, the server can be configured without the need for any additional software or specialist programming skills. Once activated, whatever section of the network or server needs protecting, all that is required is a simple Login button.

Once this Login button is clicked, the browser automatically activates the Client Authentication dialog (a piece of software that is already ‘bundled’ in most web browsers).
