Fujitsu and charismathics team-up on network scanning solutions

USA: Fujitsu, the market leader in document imaging scanners, announced that it is partnering with charismathics, the world's leading supplier of platform independent PKI client software, to incorporate its PKI middleware product range into the Fujitsu line of network scanners.

The integration provides an enhanced level of identity management security, specifically for government organizations, utilizing the "Personal Identity Verification" (PIV) and "Common Access Card" (CAC) solution for their document collaboration capabilities.

Not only is meeting the stringent infrastructure and security requirements associated with government entities a focus for Fujitsu, but also making sure that deploying a simple network scanning strategy is just as critical. Moreover, many of these government organizations require the use of smart cards for user authentication, including military personal, Selected Reserve, and Department of Defense civilian employees, with the US Government being one of the largest issuers of smart cards around the world.

The Fujitsu network scanners, including the Fujitsu ScanSnap N1800 and ScanSnap fi-6010N, now provide all these tools and capabilities in one document imaging solution, in addition to helping improve business process management and efficiency and reduce overall workplace costs, based on a NIST certified and FIPS 201 evaluated product.
