Business Forum
certSIGN, a Romanian IT&C company and the leading manufacturer and developer of cryptographic solutions in Romania, announces the successful completion of the  PKI project acceptance for  the EU Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) to provide Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) solutions for Galileo, Europe's Global Navigation Satellite System. The project, which has been carried out under the Galileo programme funded by the European Union, was awarded to certSIGN following a public tender organized at the end of 2022 and it is valued to approximately €2 million.

"We are thrilled about the opportunity to collaborate with EUSPA and provide reliable and secure PKI solutions to protect communications within Galileo's Open Service Navigation Message Authentication. PKI technology is at our company's core, our PKI and data encryption solutions are highly secure, and the awarding of this project to certSIGN acknowledges this. At the same time, we are glad that we have the opportunity to support EUSPA in the continuous innovation and development of new solutions whose final beneficiaries are the users of the EU space programmes around the world," stated Adrian Florea, CEO of certSIGN.

certSIGN has implemented PKI systems for Galileo through two authority certificates - Root Certification Authority (RCA) and Subsidiary Certification Authority (SCA), which will have the role of protecting the Public Key material provided as part of Galileo OSNMA service (https://www.gsc-europa.eu/galileo/services/galileo-open-service-navigation-message-authentication-osnma ).

During the project, certSIGN has provided services related to the design, development, delivery, installation, integration, and validation of the PKI systems, as well as PKI policies and procedures. The PKI system provides the necessary mechanisms to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and authenticity of electronic data for the Galileo OSNMA service.

The implementation of the PKI systems will be followed by a 12-month warranty and maintenance period.

certSIGN is a Romanian IT&C company and the leading manufacturer and developer of cryptographic solutions in Romania.
