Versasec AB (registration number: 556739-0124[1]) was founded in 2007[2] in Stockholm, Sweden. The company produces and sells identity management software for computer security and has specialized in software connecting smart cards to computer systems.
Versasec has developed three product lines:
- vSEC:CMS[3][4][5] –smart card management systems for managing PKI smart cards and digital certificates, generally with the intention to use the smart cards as identification tokens and badges in organizations to enable multi-factor authentication and non-repudiation
- vSEC:ID[6][7] – software for enabling public key operations using smart cards in organizations, for example to use digital signatures
- vSEC:MAIL[8][9] – software that enables organizations to communicate using encrypted and/or digitally signed email messages
The company has a partnership with smart card manufacturer Gemalto. The Versasec-Gemalto partnership began in 2010,[10] and enables the company to offer its products through the Gemalto partner network[11] and in the Gemalto product catalog.[12]
Versasec currently has offices in the following countries:
- Sweden - (Headquarters, Versasec AB, Stockholm and Uppsala)
