CDC Arkhineo and OPENTRUST’s Solution for Generating and Archiving Electronic Data |
Paris, March 15, 2007 - CDC Arkhineo, France’s renowned and trusted third-party archiving solution, and IDEALX, publisher of OpenTrust™, the global security and trust platform, have joined forces to produce a solution that combines electronic signatures and highly-secure data archiving.
IDEALX’s OpenTrust™ solution, recently enriched with advanced electronic signature and proof management functions, now includes the CDC Arkhinéo secure archiving functionality. The integrated CDC Arkhinéo archiving service is currently available as part of the standard OpenTrust™ package.
As organizations gradually switch from paper procedures to electronic ones, the need for secure data storage solutions has become vital.
CDC Arkhinéo is France’s leading archiving solution and has been used to archive tens of millions of documents since its creation in 2001. Its Coffre-fort électronique® (electronic safe) is a solution that meets the ever-growing need for conserving electronic documents of legal value, intact, for decades. This solution guarantees data integrity, eliminating all risk of data loss, destruction, falsification and/or modifications.
OpenTrust™ is IDEALX’s Open Source trust infrastructure for securely managing the life cycle of trust elements. An integrated and modular solution, OpenTrust™ enables large scale deployment of strong authentication, smart card management, encryption, timestamping, electronic signature and proof management solutions.
CDC Arkhinéo and IDEALX’s joint solution (Coffre-fort électronique® and OpenTrust™),designed to be deployed within large international corporations with several tens of thousand users, includes certification services that consolidate certificates and timestamping data, combined with management of user rights, the ability to assign cryptographic devices (e.g. smart cards) to users and automatically generate certificates.
Olivier Guilbert, CEO IDEALX, declared: "OpenTrust was developed to provide the 6 key trust services needed to secure paperless transactions: strong authentication, encryption, integrity, traceability, electronic signature and proof management. Interfacing with the CDC Arkhineo archiving service further strengthens the OpenTrust™ offer, forming a solution that is both easy to implement and complete.”
"The legal value of a digital archive (contract, invoice, pay slip, etc.) depends on both the process used to generate the archived document and on the guaranteed integrity of this document over time. When combined, our two offers enable organizations to securely perform electronic transactions and meet all legal requirements." enthused Charles du Boullay, Managing Director, CDC Arkhinéo.
