ArcotID PKI is a secure software credential that provides two-factor authentication and protects digital IDs using cryptographic camouflage technology.
An ArcotID PKI is a small data file that by itself can be used for strong authentication to a variety of applications such as Web or Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). ArcotID PKI is not vulnerable to "brute force" password attacks or "man-in-the-middle" attacks.
The size of the ArcotID PKI depends on the presence of the logo image. If the logo is present, then the ArcotID PKI size can range between 3KB-100KB, otherwise it is typically between 2KB-3KB.
When an ArcotID PKI is used to protect one or more Digital IDs, it provides the same features as a physical smartcard or USB security token such as, client-server strong authentication, digital signing, encryption, and decryption. The ArcotID PKI Client software provides standard CSP and PKCS#11 protocol support for PKI-enabled applications.
Note: To get a better understanding of how to integrate the SDK with your client application, see the sample application shipped with the client package described in this guide.
