Technology Partners

Microsoft
SPYRUS is a Microsoft Certified Partner. Our technology partnership with Microsoft began in 1994, working with the then-newly formed Microsoft security group to bring to market a number of robust security solutions based on public key and portable smart tokens. Among them are the Crypto Service Provider(CSP) for Authenticode, a technical demonstration
program for the UK Government showing e-mail and PKI interoperability, smart token products for secure log-on and single sign-on, and S/MIME Labeling for policy-driven secure e-mail. In 1994, SPYRUS licensed its security protocol technology for Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft Outlook products to support the U.S. Department of Defense Message System (DMS), the largest public key messaging system in the world with over 300,000 seats deployed. This license has been renewed until 2006 to support the release of DMS 3.x and additional Microsoft platforms. In 2001, SPYRUS and Microsoft announced the expansion of its partner ship to include SPYRUS development of the Signal Identity Manager™ that provides a complementary registration authority for digital identities with a smart token, policy, and audit management system in order to enhance the functionality of the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Certificate Services (Microsoft CA). Signal Identity Manager is seamlessly integrated with Windows Server 2003, utilizes the Microsoft CA certificate management interfaces to provide remote certificate and smart token management capabilities, and optimizes performance through the use of Active Directory.



IBM
       IBM and SPYRUS have teamed to provide identity management solutions to enterprises and government customers worldwide. Most recently, IBM selected SPYRUS and the Signal Identity Manager to provide total smart card, key and certificate management services to fulfill the smart card and certificate issuance requirements for the defense department of a major Middle East government.



WinMagic Inc.
WinMagic Inc. develops disk encryption software. Its SecureDoc line of products ensures protection of sensitive information stored on desktops and laptops by employing authentication from password to hardware token, biometrics, and PKI commencing at pre-boot time. Award-winning WinMagic Inc. products focus on concrete security features and at the same time offer unparalleled flexibility.
SPYRUS Talisman/DS products, including the Hydra Privacy Card Enterprise Edition, Rosetta USB security device, and SecureDoc by WinMagic Inc., were selected by the U.S. Department of Defense Data at Rest Program in June 2007 to secure data on mobile computer platforms and removable storage media.



Raytheon
As the security systems integrator for the Navy and Marine Corps Intranet initiative (NMCI) and other U.S. Government programs, Raytheon is a key partner for SPYRUS’ products in the government
market. Raytheon first licensed SPYRUS’ Rosetta CSI CAC Middleware in 2001. Raytheon’s solutions have since incorporated SPYRUS Rosetta Smart Card and USB tokens, and the LYNKS Privacy Cards for use within the national defense network.



Lockheed Martin
 
SPYRUS’ relationship with Lockheed Martin Corporation dates back to the original Defense Message System contract in 1994. Since then, SPYRUS and Lockheed Martin have collaborated on a number of projects for the U.S. Government, including the development and distribution
of the Rosetta sToken™ (formerly Software FORTEZZA), which implements the required government suite of algorithms to enable authentication of users utilizing a “software token” for the DMS and for operations systems in the intelligence and tactical communities. The Rosetta CSI sToken provides a FIPS 140-2 Level 1-validated token in a software form factor for easier end user deployments. SPYRUS is the only company to possess this technology.



Infineon
SPYRUS’ partnership with Infineon began in 1996, when SPYRUS began to develop the SPYRUS SPYCOS® ISO 7816 multi-application smart card operating system. Infineon, a Siemens company, is SPYRUS’ preferred chip supplier. After years of joint specification development, Infineon’s microprocessor
based chips have all the essential requirements to support security applications in a smart card. SPYRUS enhances the Infineon SLE 66CXXXXX chips with its proprietary SPYCOS software used in its Rosetta client authentication products. This chip has successfully achieved ITSEC EAL4+ certification. SPYRUS combined its Rosetta software-enhanced identity devices with the Infineon chip to achieve FIPS 140-1 PUB Levels 2 and 3 on its identity devices.



Securenet Ltd. (Israel)
   SecureNet is a leading company in Israel, providing professional security solutions. SecureNet bases its activities on the extensive knowledge and experience of its team of experts, providing the most advanced secure connectivity and access solutions in the market, along with broad security services based on up-to-date methodology, implemented with the
latest technologies. The Israeli Defense Force has chosen a team consisting of IBM, SecureNet and SPYRUS to supply and integrate a full PKI solution featuring the SPYRUS Signal Identity Manager. The project includes a full system design and consists of integrating hardware elements such as smart cards and Hardware Security Modules and combining the technology with existing and future applications.



Precise Biometrics
Precise Biometrics is a biometric technology provider with whom SPYRUS is working to meet the requirements for the U.S. Government and Fortune 100 customers. Precise Biometrics develops and supplies world-leading and user-friendly systems for authentication using fingerprints. Precise Biometrics has developed the
world's smallest fingerprint reader and was the first to introduce a fingerprint reader with integrated smart card reader and silicon sensor. Using fingerprint technology adds further security to the identification process. Its unique Match-on-Card technology makes it possible to both match and store the fingerprint information in a safe environment such as a smart card instead of a less secure computer. This ensures maximum security and restores privacy for the individual using the solution. SPYRUS and Precise Biometrics have worked together since 2000 to integrate biometric authentication into the Rosetta client authentication software. Realizing the potential use of biometrics by the Department of Defense, SPYRUS has chosen Precise Biometrics as a partner to work with DoD Common Access Card-related projects. In April 2002, SPYRUS and Precise Biometrics both teamed with KPMG Consulting under a government contract to successfully test and evaluate biometric technology as an added layer of security for the DoD Common Access Card. SPYRUS and Precise Biometrics have also worked together to develop a new network access control product that combines the SPYRUS Rosetta Smart Card and the Precise Biometrics Fingerprint Reader.
