Secure data exchange for information classified as VS-NfD & NATO-/EU-restricted
The challenge
Numerous Eviden Digital Identity customers process information classified as VS-NfD (Classified Information – For Official Use Only) or NATO-/EU-restricted. When stored as files or sent by email, this information must be reliably protected. Many companies and public authorities are required to comply with the regulations set out in the General Administrative Provisions for the Material Protection of Classified Information (VSA) and the Manual on the Safeguarding of Classified Information (Geheimschutzhandbuch).
Our solution
Many companies and government agencies use Eviden GreenShield File to meet the requirements described above. This tried-and-tested solution enables classified information to be handled digitally and without media discontinuity – without compromising security, compliance, or user-friendliness. GreenShield File encrypts VS-NfD-classified files in accordance with requirements – using X.509 certificates, OpenPGP keyrings, or ad hoc passwords. Since recipient groups are supported, recurring encryption processes with fixed communication partners run more efficiently. All this is done on the basis of open standards and current cryptography.
