Comparing with commercial certificate software e.g. VeriSign, Cybertrust, EJBCA Open Source PKI Certificate Authority makes it possible to reduce the cost for building and maintaining electronic certification issuance systems.

OGIS–RI strengthens its Open Source Software based authentication infrastructure solution lineup branded "ThemiStruct". By the coordination with “ThemiStruct”, EJBCA realizes integrated authentication platform with ID management and Single Sign On. The platform is also applicable for upcoming market of smart phone, tablet and other mobile devices.

• Electronic Certificates increase the security level of Cloud computing
  
  Traditional authentication of "User ID” and “Password" is not enough to protect your IT environment from "Spoofing", "defacing" and "private information leaking". The use of Electronic Certificates verified by a reliable third-party increases IT security level, dramatically and very efficiently.
   
• About EJBCA and Japanese translation
  
  EJBCA Open Source PKI Software is developed by Swedish IT Security company PrimeKey. EJBCA is the leading and most downloaded Open Source PKI Software. Since its first release (2001), then only available in English, now EJBCA is available in 9 languages.
  
  PrimeKey and OGIS–RI announce today, that EJBCA is officially available in the Japanese language and released from version 4.0.11.
  
  PrimeKey and OGIS–RI are also announcing that the companies are starting to negotiate for a partnership in Japan. OGIS–RI is a contributor to the EJBCA Community since many years.
   
• Benefits of EJBCA
  
  Generally, the price of commercial electronic certificate services is fixed by the unit. As a result, in parallel with increasing the number of issued certificates, the expense continues to increase. However, with EJBCA, the cost reduces drastically with increased issuance. Therefore, it is possible to issue high number of certificates without extra cost even with multi devices.
  
  Therefore, OGIS–RI provides to the market an integrated solution based on EJBCA called "ThemiStruct–CM", which is an authentication infrastructure for ID management and a Single Sign On platform.
