Certificates and keys

Interchange offers true security by providing authentication, confidentiality, integrity and non-repudiation of documents. Interchange uses state-of-the-art cryptography to ensure the security of the documents you exchange over the public Internet.

See RFC 3280 at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3280.txt for complete information about Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure. For a glossary of Internet security terms, go to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2828.txt .

Do you use PGP?

Look for topics with PGP in the title for information about using Pretty Good Privacy certificates. Start with PGP secure trading. Unless PGP is mentioned explicitly, the topics in this documentation concern X.509 certificates. Using PGP depends on whether your user license supports it. Optional PGP support is in addition to standard X.509 support.
