secunet’s GRT Platinum Edition is an advancement from the Golden Reader Tool which was developed by secunet as early as 2005 on behalf of the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and which has been internationally tested and acknowledged as a reference implementation.
The new version comprises a wider range of functions and is more flexible when it comes to use-cases and design. The user-interface can be customised by so-called Application-SnapIns which make it easily applicable on mobile devices and touch screens as well. As opposed to the former Golden Reader Tool, the secunet Golden Reader Tool Platinum Edition is meant for commercial use and offers the possibility to adjust the design to each respective company. The fast and lean implementation allows integration in individual application scenarios very easily.
