PKI for Educational Institutions

Join institutions including The University of Oxford, Warwick University, London School of Economics in selecting GlobalSign online security solutions.

It is an essential that educational institutes such as schools, colleges and universities are able to sustain a reliable, highly trusted secure network to ensure all functions of the organisation are meeting the stipulated regulatory conditions surrounding confidentiality and privacy. Educational institutes today face even more security threats such as identity theft and phishing attacks and an increasing number of diploma/Certificate mills that attempt to capitalise on the institution's brand.

Adobe Certified Document Services

Publish secure and authentic electronic PDF documents

More and more educational institutions are now increasing student and alumni satisfaction as universities and colleges disseminate high stake documents like transcripts electronically in a fraction of the time and costs seen with their paper equivalent. CDS provides a more secure and reliable form of document exchange, enabling documents to retain their integrity while recipients can determine the documents authenticity and authorship. With educational institutes shifting towards electronic methods of documentation this solution enables the fast and secure transfer of confidential information.

Trusted Root Certificate Authority

Root Signing to enable your Enterprise Certificate Authority to issue globally trusted Digital Certificates

Educational institutions operating their own Microsoft Certificate Services or in house Certificate Authority can chain their Root Certificates to the widely distributed and highly trusted GlobalSign Root CA Certificate - eliminating costly "not trusted" errors and immediately benefiting from the trust associated with GlobalSign and its 10 year+ long relationships with all the browser, application and Operating System vendors.
