E-commerce Change the World

Hello, today i will continue to share another important topic with you again. As we know, there are many competitors in the business market and customers are more demanding and sophisticated as compared to before. Therefore, it is important for the local organisation to provide a secure information security system to their customers. In order to let you understand more about this system, I will share "the application of third party certification programme which is used in Malaysia" in this post.

Before I introduce the applicant, let me explain what is the meaning of 3rd party for this system. It means that, anyone who is issued digital certificate in order to provide verification that your website does practically represent your company and it is called certificate authorities (CAs). The most famous applicant in Malaysia is MSC Trustgate.com Sdn.

MSC Trustgate was established in year 1999 under Digital Signature Act 1997 (DSA), and it is a licensed Certification Authority which operating with the Multimedia Super Corridor. The core business of Trustgate is to provide digital certification services which include digital certificates, cryptographic products, and software development. Objective of Trustgate is to secure the open network communications for both locally and across the ASEAN region. Besides, the vision of Trustgate is to enable organizations to conduct their business securely over the Internet, as much as what they have been enjoying in the physical world.

There are few products and services provided by Trustgate which include SSL Certificate, Managed PKI, Personal ID, MyTRUST, MyKAD ID, SSL VPN, Managed Security Services, VeriSign Certified Training and Application Development.

The VeriSign SSL Certificate service is used to enhance the server security for your websites. Global server ID and secure server ID are the server security provided by MSC Trustgate. Moreover, Managed Public Key Infrastructure (MPKI) service is designed to increase the security of intranet, extranet, and internet application. An organization can create their own multiple digital certification program with efficiency and cost-effective through this flexible managed service. This service is to protect on-line transaction, digitally sign them and control the access to intranets and extranets.
On the other hand, there are millions of business transactions performed over the unsecured network. This unsecured network will increase the possibility of private information to be exposed and altered by others. Thus, digital ID is needed in order to ensure that the information is remained private. This digital ID can be considered as personal ID, without the digital ID in electronic transaction your request will be rejected. Trustgate’s digital ID is governed by Digital Signature Act 1997.


MyTRUST for mobile phone is to enable customers have a more secure mobile banking and other financial services. It runs on Wireless PKI platform and Mobile Operator infrastructure. The picture below shows the process of this service.

MyKad designed by government with PKI capability is to allow their citizen to perform the online transaction with government and private company. MyKey provided by Trustgate is the PKI solution for MyKad and to allow the holder to authenticate themselves online and digitally sign document or transaction.
