vSEC:CMS on Azure

The vSEC:CMS on Azure is an innovative, easily integrated and cost-effective Credential Management System (CMS) that will help you deploy and manage credentials within your organization. vSEC:CMS will change your views on how to manage the lifecycle of physical and virtual credentials. Organizations can run vSEC:CMS C-Series in public clouds, private clouds and hybrid clouds.

Vendor Independent

vSEC:CMS is fully functional with minidriver enabled credentials such as smart cards, USB tokens and virtual smart cards including Windows Hello for Business (WHfB) and it streamlines all aspects of managing credentials by connecting to enterprise directories, certificate authorities, physical access control systems, email servers, log servers, biometric fingerprint readers, PIN mailers… the list goes on. With vSEC:CMS organizations can issue credentials to employees, personalize the credentials with authentication credentials and manage the lifecycle of the credentials – directly from the cloud.

Secure

A cornerstone of vSEC:CMS is security, all sensitive data and keys are secured using hardware. Operators of the system are authenticated using two-factor authentication and all usage is securely audited for full traceability.
The main task of a CMS is to securely connect user identities (credentials) into an enterprise systems and maintain this connection throughout the lifecycle of the credential. That implies the need of secure communication with several external systems.

We support many different use cases; configuration options and our feature set are vast.

Use Case Guide: Windows Credential Logon

We will guide you through the initial setup all the way to you issuing and managing the lifecycle of your secure devices. Follow this guide on our Support Portal: Windows Credential Logon

  • Versasec adds Matica EDIsecure to its existing list of supported Smart Card printers. By leveraging a smart card printer organizations are not only able to print graphics onto the smart card it is also a great tool in larger deployments where Versasec can issue large batches of smart cards by leveraging the functionality of the printer.
  • Admins can now ensure FIDO tokens have PINs set during credential issuance, increasing security.
  • Managed certificates now have a dedicated repository for all transactions, including certificate issuance and revocation. Dedicated repository for managed certificates will facilitate traceability, and reporting.
  • Continuing towards the passwordless journey , Azure AD TAP functionality has been expanded. Now, admins are able to create TAP and distribute it on-demand, not just during credential issuance. Allowing TAP to be generated and delivered to already-in-use credentials.
  • General performance improvements including application start up, credential information loading, and more.
  • Added support for Thales SafeNet IDPrime 3930 FIDO.The SafeNet IDPrime 3930 is a dual FIDO-PKI device designed for combined FIDO-PKI-based use cases.
