Windows device driver information for CipherServer - 2108

The CipherServer - 2108 is a bundled product with the Fortezza Cryptologic Library. As such its device driver is deployed combined with that of the Fortezza product family. The CipherServer - 2108 is actually a multiple card reader that connects directly to a Personal Computer system. With the installation of the proper device driver this hardware component can function both as a reader and as a writer. The deployment of this hardware component is intended to offload the processing of cryptographic services in order to generate faster response times. The increase in the response time of the supported hardware component will result in a corresponding enhancement of the functionality of the servers intended for database management. The deployment of this hardware component with its associated device driver can also be used in conjunction with Web browsers, firewalls, and Web servers among others.

Complete system supports is only made available to this computer based card reader and writer when the proper device driver is present in the host computer system. The implementation of this hardware solution is a viable compliment to both Intranet and Internet based software applications. One of the distinct advantages provided by this hardware component is in the area of securing messaging elements like electronic mail packages and data protection among others. In some instances this hardware component with the help of the correct device driver can also be used to implement user authentication processes. The device driver despite being packaged with the Fortezza services can also support other cipher suites like the RSA and DES. The device driver designed by the manufacturer allows for a simplified implementation that is characterized by its flexibility and ease of use. The device driver can also support an optional Multi-Access CI Library. It is highly recommended you run a free registry scan for and CipherServer - 2108 errors before installing any driver updates.
