Unicity MSS 4.3 is released
Cryptolog starts new year 2011 by announcing a new release of Unicity MSS, its powerful electronic signature server, enabling mass signing of a very large flow of documents on behalf of a legal entity. With release 4.3, which replaces release 4.2 launched in August 2010, Unicity MSS has been enriched once again to meet the growing market requirements of electronic signature. This new version of Unicity MSS provides significant features for both administration and integration.

Signing files by depositing them in hot folders

This new software version enables to avoid the use of web services when signing documents, and thus offers a greater ease of integration: with version 4.3, it is possible to define active files or hot folders, where you just have to drop documents to automatically trigger their signature. After Unicity MSS has done the job, you will find the signed documents in an output directory, predefined in the configuration of hot folders.

Redesign of the administration GUI

Regarding administration, the graphical user interface (GUI) of Unicity MSS was revised to allow administrators to save time by going directly to the key features of the software. This one includes a new configuration panel that gives a one click access to all components of the interface: signature services, signature profiles, user management, tokens management, certificate management, etc.

Put an ID on each signature

Release 4.3 lets you give a customizable ID number (Request Id or Transaction Id) for each electronic signature operation. In particular, this new feature is useful when you want to filter the signatures made according to this criterion. For the signing of invoices for instance, you can use the invoice number as a signing ID number. A simple query on a particular invoice number enables you to quickly find at what exact time this invoice was signed. Another application can be to set an ID number for each department of your company, then to make requests based on this criterion.

64-bit architectures compatibility with PKCS#11 tokens

Finally, among the new features of this version, we can also point out the compatibility of 64-bit systems  (Windows, Linux, OS X, Solaris, etc.) with cryptographic tokens compliant with the PKCS#11 standard.
Unicity MSS 4.3 is available at no additional cost for customers with a maintenance contract and can be downloaded from projects.cryptolog.com.
