Overview of the newly added features
The biggest announcement for this version is that it supports three of our new products in a fully integrated way.
SimpleSign
Readers of our blog will maybe remember that we were still looking for a good name for this product. Well here it is: SimpleSign. A very simple app to sign and validate PDF documents using the Trust1Connector or the Truststore to retrieve the signing certificate. So our three newest products integrated.
Truststore
The Truststore application is an add-on to the Trust1Connector. The Trust1Connector enables multiple hardware keys to be used for authentication and digital signing.
The Truststore adds an integration with local keystore using system APIs
MSCAPI/CNG (Windows)
Keychain (Mac/OSX)
Validation Services
The validation service is a web application that validates a single or multiple signatures of a pdf(/a) document or a certificate chain.

Trust1Connector Updates
Here is a summary of all the changes made on the Trust1Connector. But as this is a bit nerdy stuff, here are the main reasons for you to upgrade to this version
We have cleaned up the T1C a bit and depreciated older tools that are not used anymore
We have upgraded the SDK so that the Truststore can be incorporated in applications if applicable.
a clear way of identifying if a certificate originates from the Truststore or from a reader for authentication and signing purposes
Leaving the app builder to possibility to use the Truststore or not
and a lot more fancy stuff...
We have added global X509 parsing of certificates
As we have more than 32 million installations of the connector we have added a mechanisme to re-use prior installed versions of the connector. Off course it is up to you to decide if you want to use this mechanisme.
If you want to read all the nerdy details please check out our gitbook link.
We are looking forward to receiving your feedback on this new release! Put them in mail to support@trust1team.com or create a ticket in our service desk.
