In a hospital not only high security requirements apply (not to be imagined if patient data fall into the hands of hackers), but also high demands on user-friendliness. For example, an emergency doctor or surgeon cannot deal with complicated passwords when a patient next door is in danger of death.
The Centre Hospitalier de Luxembourg (CHL), which operates several clinics in Luxembourg, was therefore looking for a secure and user-friendly solution to eliminate as many passwords as possible with the same card (or token). With this one solution, a clinic employee should be able to enter the garage in the morning, log on to the PC, start various programs, operate time recording and pay in the canteen.
With the multi-application card and the smartcard middleware from cryptovision, the CHL’s wish could be fulfilled in an ideal way. In the meantime, even more applications have been added to the originally planned ones. The employee card is now also used to digitally sign e-mails and workflows. The card solution has made CHL’s day-to-day work easier, while security has increased.

HiMed Cockpit from Siemens is a successful multimedia terminal for the hospital bed. It “offers patients comfort in a new dimension” (Siemens website). With the HiMed Cockpit, patients can make phone calls, watch TV, surf the Internet, obtain information via a patient portal, use various applications and more. The integrated camera even enables a virtual visit to the hospital by relatives.
The HiMed Cockpit is also a great help for doctors and nurses. It can be connected to the hospital information system, allowing a doctor, for example, to view a patient’s medical record at the bedside. Thanks to smartcard authentication, the security of sensitive data is guaranteed at all times.
cryptovision has developed an extension of the smartcard middleware SCinterface for Siemens. This is used on the HiMed cockpits and enables the secure login of a doctor or nurse.

The Bundeswehr is Germany’s largest IBM Notes user. Microsoft Outlook is also used by the German armed forces. It goes without saying that e-mail encryption is indispensable for an army. However, the native encryption functions of Notes and Outlook neither have the necessary security evaluations nor do they offer all the functions required for large user groups. The Bundeswehr therefore had to look for a better e-mail encryption solution.
Although there are many e-mail encryption solutions on the market, cryptovision’s s/mail proved to be the only one that met the high requirements of the German Armed Forces. Unlike some other email encryption products, s/mail is client-based and offers end-to-end security. In addition, s/mail is available for both Notes and Outlook, which was an important criterion for the Bundeswehr.
It also offers a number of practical functions that are particularly interesting for large user groups. Above all, s/mail offers the highest security level of all currently available e-mail encryption solutions. It has a VS-NfD, “NATO Restricted” and “EU Restricted” approval.
There is no other e-mail crypto product with comparable certifications on the market. In a process lasting several years, the Bundeswehr evaluated s/mail. For cryptovision, the feedback from the Bundeswehr was valuable suggestions for improving and expanding the program. In 2007, the Bundeswehr acquired an s/mail corporate license.
More information about cryptovision’s email encryption solution at the German armed forces is available on Heise Online.

Alstom is a global leader in the transportation sector, manufacturing high-speed trains, metros, streetcars and e-buses. Its portfolio also includes digital mobility solutions.
Out of a desire to improve its internal systems and provide added value to its customers, Alstom decided to expand its IT applications. The company decided to deploy an internal PKI for authentication, authorization, and encryption of users, machines, and objects, and to implement cybersecurity to secure the firmware of train and railroad equipment.
To meet all requirements, we have developed a complete solution for digital identity management and code signing. The solutions reflect the importance of protecting critical assets in complex systems built on a critical infrastructure with many smart objects.
Specifically, the solutions implemented were:
IDnomic PKI – centralized digital identity management system for all PKI use cases.
IDnomic Sign – platform for creating and verifying electronic signatures to ensure the integrity of device firmware
IDnomic Timestamping – application for providing trusted time tokens
