To ensure the identity of your business partners or customers during the communication
via internet, they should be provided with identification mechanisms, e.g. smart cards. The
following picture describes exemplarily the registration process for issuing signature cards:
The quality of the identification which is used during a business transaction depends strongly on the
registration process. In case the doubtless identity of your business partner
is required, this identity needs to be ensured during the registration process.
Customized registration processes
Economical reasons, security considerations, user convenience and duration of the whole process
are essential for the conception of a registration process. Complex registration processes which take
several days or even weeks and which require that the customer has to fill out several forms often
lead to the result that customers lose their interest in the application itself. A cost and time-efficient
registration is applicable even for highest security requirements.
Life Cycle Management
If identification data is valid only for a limited time period, a complete Life Cycle Management
needs to be set up. Such systems handle the issuing of identification mechanisms and contain facilities for revocation, renewal or replacement of the
identification mechanisms.
