Even though installing and running charismathics smart security interface is extremely easy, small and medium size companies don't usually have inhouse expertise to configure the basic funtions they need for a complete PKI approach. That's when an off-the-shelf product like ControlSphere can immediately prove beneficial. Fully integrated with charismathics CSSI, it lets the company enjoy Windows and netword logon, hard disk and file encryption, password management and enterprise token management in a matter of minutes.

All you just preliminary need are an active license of charismathics CSSI and a secure hardware device like charismathics charismathics plug'n'crypt.

ControlSphere in pills

ControlSphere is a computer security and automation solution designed to protect user data and automate most of the authentication tasks at work and home environments.
ControlSphere secures user data, protects privacy and eliminates the need of remembering and typing any password. The solution integrates with common authentication and data storage procedures on a PC and replaces them with a strong two-factor authentication (with smart card or USB token) representing a central security and SSO point.
ControlSphere is a modular solution consisting of four general services which can be used separately or in combination.
•    Windows and Network Logon service allows quick and easy access to multiple computers and multiple Windows accounts and Active Directory services by using a single smart card / token device
•    Hard disk and file encryption service allows transparent hard disk and file / folder encryption with a variety of options
•    Feature-rich unlimited Password Management service allows password and other secure data storage on a portable secure device. These data are automatically delivered to requesting Windows programs and web forms
•    Enterprise Token Management System Server is an enterprise control and configuration module of ControlSphere. The TMS does not only contain centralized user/device registry but as well synchronize their contents with database automatically.

smart card based Windows and network logon

Besides the standard means of Windows user authentication system, ControlSphere supports strong two-factor authentication to Windows and Active Directory service by leveraging use of smart card or token devices.
A smart card (or USB cryptographic token) can hold a number of Windows user accounts which can be used to log on to Windows or Active Directory services on single or multiple computers. At the same time standard Windows authentication means can be enabled or disabled depending on security requirements.

ControlSphere allows users to even disregard their passwords by keeping and maintaining all secret information on a protected device. All that is required by a user to know is a PIN for the smart card / token device to log on to Windows and Network.

hard disk and file / folder encryption

The disk encryption service of ControlSphere protects sensitive information from unauthorized access, copying, modifying, and theft on personal computers and removable media devices. By leveraging encrypted virtual drive approach ControlSphere can encrypt sensitive data on a local hard drive, removable or network location. Furthermore it can fully secure user profile (Desktop, Favorites, usage history, etc.) and temporary folders data by automatically redirecting them to an encrypted location. Storing encrypted user profiles on a network allows true employee portability and roaming desktop feature on all company computers connected to a server.
The encrypted containers are visible to a user as ordinary hard drives, allowing transparent access to the sensitive information. The data is transparently decrypted when it is read from the disk or network and encrypted before it is written. The protected information cannot be viewed or copied by other users who do not have an access to the encryption key.

feature-rich unlimited password management

ControlSphere provides unlimited password management functionality, allowing automatic secure passwords backup and cloning from one smartcard/USB token to another.

Token Management System

The Token Management System of ControlSphere is a comprehensive set of tools and functions designed to help companies control the lifecycle of their secure device fleet. The TMS does not only contain centralized user/device registry but as well synchronize their contents with database automatically. This functionality guarantees data safety and recoverability, making secure device recovery and data restoration an easy task. TMS administrators can remotely distribute new data and keys to user’s devices, perform PIN reset and blacklist them in case of a theft event.
