| | | | | |  | | Did you know that cryptovision has more than 20 eID card customers worldwide? Among others, the governments of Armenia, Colombia, Croatia, Ecuador, Mexico, and Nigeria make use of cryptovision's eID solutions. The Nigeria eID project is especially interesting because Nigeria with 160 million inhabitants is by far the largest country in Africa. The Nigerian eID project therefore requires one of the largest card and public key infrastructures ever built. cryptovision expects many more eID projects in the near future. Says cryptovision CEO Markus Hoffmeister: "Electronic identity cards are a rapidly growing technology. Especially newly industrialised countries are very interested in eID systems. We are well positioned in this emerging market and looking forward to new challenges to come."

| | | | |  | | cryptovision's high-end PKI solution, CAmelot is now version 3.0. It comes with a bunch of new features. It now supports additional databses (MySQL, MSSQL, H2), which makes CAmelot integration into IDM and other data vaults even easier. In addition, the Web-based user interface, the monitoring functions, and the certificate templates have been improved. Additional HSMs are supported (Bull, NCipher, Safenet).

| | | | | CARTES Secure Connexions
cryptovision took part in this year's issue of the world's most important smart card and microchip exhibition, the CARTES Secure Connexions 2015 (Paris, November 17-19). Only four days after the Paris terror attacks the organiser took additional security measures in order to protect 450 exhibitors, 20,000 visitors and 1600 conference attendees. In spite of the sad events beforehand the CARTES Secure Connexions 2015 became a success.

| | | | | |  | | The market for Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) is booming with PKI being among the most important demanders. In addition to several other HSM solutions cryptovision's CAmelot now also supports the HSM products of Thales. Thales HSM's and CAmelot have one important thing in common: They are very successfull on the government market. cryptovision is looking forward to a fruitful partnership with a leading HSM supplier.

| | | | |  | | The FIDO (Fast IDentity Online Alliance), an industry consortium aiming to revolutionise online security with open authentication standards, is rapidly gaining importance. cryptovision is proud to be a member of this organisation. FIDO recently anounced that meanwhile tens of millions of FIDO-based devices are in use for end-user and enterprise account protection. Among the major relying parties are Google, PayPal, NTT DOCOMO, Bank of America, Dropbox, and GitHub. With 72 FIDO Certified products and almost 250 Alliance member organizations, the market is clearly saying now is the time to deploy FIDO authentication to replace outdated password systems.

| | | | |  | | Can you crack the following ciphertext? Every reader, who sends the correct solution to codebreaker@cryptovision.com, takes part in a lottery drawing. The winner receives a copy of Klaus Schmeh's new book "Codeknacker gegen Codemacher", which covers the history of encryption technology. Entry deadline is 2016-02-15. Here's the ciphertext:
Vyfo kvv, dbecd k pog, ny gbyxq dy xyxo. Gsvvskw Crkuoczokbo.
The codebreaker challenge can be solved by hand, but you can also use the free software CrypTool (available on the internet). CrypTool was sponsored by cryptovision.
The solution of the last Codecracker Challenge (newsletter 7/2015) was the following text:
Auf den ersten Blick ist der Fall klar. Henry Debosnys tauchte 1882 in Essex (US-Bundesstaat New York) auf und heiratete eine Witwe. Als er bemerkte, dass bei seiner neuen Frau nicht viel zu holen war, tötete er sie. Er wurde verhaftet, schuldig gesprochen und gehenkt. Doch der Fall gibt Raetsel auf. Debosnys beteuerte seine Unschuld. Zwar sprach vieles gegen ihn, doch fuer einen Schuldspruch erscheint die Beweislage im Nachhinein zu duenn. Interessant ist, dass auch zwei fruehere Frauen Debosnys’ frueh starben. Die erste ertrank, die zweite verhungerte angeblich. Das groesste Raetsel ist Debosnys’ Herkunft. Er behauptete vor Gericht, “Debosnys” sei nicht sein richtiger Name. Seine wahre Identitaet wollte er nicht preisgeben. Einige dieser Raetsel koennte man vielleicht loesen, wenn man vier verschluesselte Texte dechiffrieren koennte, die Debosnys hinterlassen hat. Das ist bisher jedoch nicht gelungen.
