„kick IT“ – achelos is not only a „dribbling artist“, but also a „playmaker“ in IT security

With the development of the eIDAS Inspector achelos provides an answer to the requirements of the European Regulation (EU) No. 910/2014 (eIDAS Regulation). The new test system from achelos serves to verify electronically signed digital certificates and seals, electronic signatures, time stamps and other electronically signed documents, e.g. XML files (XAdES), PDF files (PAdES) or data containers (ASiC).

With the TLS Checklist Inspector achelos demonstrates a new web portal solution. The test suite easily and efficiently checks the security of websites according to the guidelines of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). 

"The two new test suites expand our comprehensive portfolio of security test suites as needed. The eIDAS Inspector is used as a supporting testing tool in certification processes, for process-accompanying output control (e.g. in trust centers) or for verifying digital authorization documents at the end user. The TLS Checklist Inspector is suitable as proof for the operation of a secure website," describes Kathrin Asmuth, managing partner at achelos, the advantages of the new products.
