  1. What is the PKCS#7 Toolkit for C/C++? (top)

    The Entrust family of security products protects the privacy, integrity, and authenticity of information communicated among workstations within a network. Privacy is achieved through Entrust’s secure encryption and decryption algorithms. Integrity and authenticity (the assurances that neither the data nor the identity of the sender have been altered) are achieved through digital signatures.

    Many of Entrust’s security functions (like encryption and digital signing) are performed by a security kernel referred to as the Engine. PKCS#7 Toolkit for C/C++ provides a straight-forward portable application programming interface (API) to the Engine. Through this interface, software developers can easily integrate Entrust’s security functions into their own applications.

  2. Is EntrustFile available on multiple operating systems and platforms? (top)

    Yes, PKCS#7 Toolkit for C/C++ is currently available across a number of UNIX Operating Systems and platforms, as well as 32bit Windows and Macintosh platforms.

  3. When will EntrustFile be commercially available? (top)

    PKCS#7 Toolkit for C/C++ has been commercially available since Q1, 1995 and is continually being updated to support new “standards” features and directions. Call your Entrust representative or Entrust Value-Added Reseller for current release dates.
