Tomas Gustavsson, CTO and co-founder
"Nowadays, we all use digital signatures whenever we log into our bank account, show our e-passport or use our credit card at the shops. This would not be possible without Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) enabling us to communicate securely on an insecure public network such as the Internet."
