Consultancy

Diginus has built a significant pool of knowledge and experience working in the field of digital identities, Public Key Infrastructures (PKI), digital signing and authentication. As well as specific technical knowledge of the standards, software and hardware solutions, our knowledge also includes a deep understanding of relevant EU and UK legislation, UK Government authentication methods and related standards such as t-Scheme, ISO27001/BS7799, ISO9001.

For organisations wishing to explore or to deploy any digital identity based solution we are confident that an initial preliminary conversation would be well worth your time and effort. You will find our staff people-friendly, excellent communicators and always seeking to provide professional, independent views.

Hosting & managed services

With new unfamiliar technology, especially when deployed as a demonstrator or proof of concept, some of our clients find it convenient to take advantage of Diginus' capability to offer a fully managed service, taking responsibility for both hosting and ongoing management of the service.

Diginus is also happy to consider client-hosted, Diginus-managed solution if this is preferred.

Digital certificate technology

Diginus has extensive knowledge of the digital certificate field and is able to conduct a full requirement analysis in support of clients who wish to harness the potential of this technology. Diginus has extensive knowledge of the 2 leading commercial PKI software solutions namely MS Certificate Server and Entrust and is able to provide class leading knowledge on the Open Source alternative OpenXPKI (formerly OpenCA).

Diginus has significant experience in designing certificate-based solutions and can provide support from initial design through to final commissioning and support.

Smart cards & tokens

Depending upon the precise needs of an individual project Diginus is able to offer smart card solutions either directly or through one of a number of alternative partners.

Open source

Diginus is fully committed to offering its clients cost effective Open Source solutions where this is appropriate. To this end Diginus has built considerable skills in the deployment of numerous Open Source solutions including OpenCA (digital certificates), Apache (Web services), Perl & PHP (Web development), mySQL (database), Joomla (Web applications), XRMS (CRM) and OWL (Intranet).

Diginus would be delighted to work with clients who wish to actively promote the use of Open Source applications within their organisation.
