1. OVERVIEW
The H500-CE/BK is a security device designed to support secure authentication and storage,
and a multitude of personal and business uses, such as:
- strong two-factor authentication
- secure private data storage
- digital certificate storage
- online transaction authorization and signing
- Bluetooth proximity-activated functions.
The H500-CE/BK can be easily accessed and controlled by custom applications running on
client devices (smart phone, tablet or PC) by connecting over Bluetooth or using a micro USB
cable. Any compatible business logic can be enforced by the client application using the
H-500 middleware to access the H-500 firmware to support the following functions:
- configure multiple flash partitions (CD-ROM, Public, Private, Hidden, Read-only)
- map the RGB LED and function button to business logic requirements
- establish a secure channel with the H500 middleware
- provide an encrypted File System for storing crypto keys and secure objects
- support shared access from multiple client applications via PKCS# v.2.2
- export cryptographic operations (AES, 3DES, SHA-1, SHA-256, RSA-1024, RSA-2048,
PKCS#1 encryption and signing, ANSI 9.31 CSRNG)
1.1 LOOK & FEEL AND USABILITY
With reference to Figs.1-2, the H500-CE and H500-BK differ only slightly in the shape and
materials used for the device housing, but share the same internals (components,
schematics, PCB, etc.) and the user interface elements (namely, the function button and the
ultra-bright, multi-color LED). The devices are powered by a 3.7V Lithium-Polymer high
capacity rechargeable battery to support usage in connected and disconnected modes with
both computers and mobile devices. The small size and weight, combined with the powerful
on-board feature set, allow maximum portability and ease of use at home, in the office and on
the road.
