Cryptomathic has announced its membership in the MULTOS consortium. It becomes the first and only Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) vendor to join the consortium’s membership ranks. Joining at the Business/Systems Membership Level, Cryptomathic’s marketing and technical experts will participate in the MAOSCO Business Advisory Group and the Systems Forum meetings.
Cryptomathic’s intention is to ensure that in addition to supporting MULTOS specifications through its key products – including CardInk, Key Management System and Certification Authority – the company is able to input into the future evolution of the technology.
Cryptomathic is currently finalizing its support for the packaging of MULTOS step/one application load units in response to customer demand. MULTOS step/one is the entry level multi-application Operating System for issuers migrating to EMV with Static Data Authentication (SDA).
