USB Token for Digital Signature A USB token for a digital signature certificate (DSC) is a USB like device which is password protected establishing the identity of an individual. It detects the identity of a person electronically thereby enhancing digital security. How does a USB token work? A USB token allows the user to access a network without having to use a password or a pin. It is highly secure and requires strong authentication for the user to access any kind of network. The token contains a unique built-in software that enables users to identify and open digital signatures. A private key is stored in the token in cryptographic form. This leads to creating a digital signature on the token while signing the operation. Since it is a password protected token it assures the users a high level of security while accessing their contents. The private key can be retrieved by the user from the USB token. What are its Characteristics? ● A USB token for digital signature contains fingerprint details or any other relevant biometric data which can be used as a cryptographic key. ● It provides a secure access to encrypt files or digital contracts. ● Almost all the USB tokens do not require a reader, hence they can be carried conveniently in hand. ● No additional devices are required for USB tokens. It can be simply plugged-in on a USB port of a laptop/computer. ● It is a durable device providing in-built security while carrying it anywhere.
