Initial situation

ILFP maintains regular email communication with its national and international clients. These emails often involve the exchange of confidential documents.

The needs of ILFP

It was important to ILFP to be able to interact with their clients via an encrypted communication channel. Authenticity needed to be guaranteed and the company recognised by its clients as a unique sender.

The certificates used for this purpose needed to be managed as easily and efficiently as possible.

The SwissSign solution

• ILFP uses the Managed PKI Service from SwissSign at OV level.

• The solution allows the company to issue all certificates flexibly at any time.

• These include the organisation-validated ‘E-Mail ID Gold’ S/MIME certificates, which enable ILFP to transmit emails in a secure and encrypted manner.

• Email certificates protect against phishing and man-in-the-middle attacks. The contents cannot be read or manipulated by unauthorised individuals. In addition to the authenticity of the sender, they also guarantee the integrity of a message. As a result, ILFP increases the trust of its customers as a whole.
