Hi Sunny, I haven't heard about Message Pro. Here is an open source (free) applet plugin:
http://www.openoces.org/index.html It is used in Denmark and maybe somewhere else as well. In Sweden the government has spent some $30M over the years on: http://nexussafe.com/en/Products/Nexus-Personal IMO, both solutions are inferior but since they are actually used it doesn't really matter :-) It interesting to note that many signature plugins come with an authentication plugin which unifies the PKI GUI which using TLS is quite terrible. Some crypto people think that replacing TLS-client-cert-auth with an application-level authentication mechanism is a bad thing but there are tons with drawbacks using TLS-client-cert-auth and there is no hope for improvements and the alternatives are already in place. Even USPTO have selected an Java applet for PKI login... Anders Sunny wrote:
Hi Anders, Thanks for your mail. Is there any proprietary solution that's named Message Pro or so??

In the EU there are at least 10 different national schemes. Chrome and Safari presumably do not support any pre-configured solution since no such solution has gotten any traction worth mentioning. There is a lot of stuff you can buy though...

For IE, we have a CAPICOM plug-in to do that. Do we have anything in chrome/safari that will help signing using Digital Certificates in java script? Please let me know.
