  • Patent number: 8819417
    Abstract: A validation server using HSM, which reduces required process time from receiving a validation request to responding with a validation result, and comprises a first software cryptographic module 142 and a second software cryptographic module 143 on a validation server 130 whose HSM is coupled with an I/F part 148. According to the validation server, load states of HSM, the first software cryptographic module 142 and the second software cryptographic module 143 are monitored by a cryptographic module monitor unit 141, and when cryptographic calculations in a validation process of certificates are conducted, the cryptographic calculations are executed by using the least loaded cryptographic module selected at a cryptographic module selector unit 140.

  • Patent number: 8635449
    Abstract: In response to a validation request that includes second information identifying the certificate authority, key information of the certificate authority at issuance of the public key certificate, and information identifying the public key certificate, if the second information identifying the certificate authority included in the validation request corresponds to the first information identifying the certificate authority included in the authority certificate, and the information identifying the public key certificate included in the validation request does not exist in the revocation information, the validation server creates a validation result indicating that the public key certificate corresponding to the information identifying the public key certificate included in the validation request is valid.

  • Publication number: 20080301439
    Abstract: A technique of managing public keys updated by a certificate authority and a plurality of hash algorithms is provided. Identifiers, each of which is uniquely determined by a pair of a public key updated by a certificate authority and a hash algorithm, are stored in an identifier information storage area (131b). A verification processing part (132c) cross-checks a received validation request and the identifiers stored in the identifier information storage area (131b). When there is an identifier corresponding to the received validation request, the verification processing part (132c) judges that the verification can be performed, and continues the verification processing.
