WISeKey is a leading information security and identity management company. It provides specialised security technologies for data protection and effective identification and authentication of people and objects over physical infrastructures, networks, and the internet to ensure secure communications and e-transactions, without compromising trust.
Established in 1999, and headquartered in Geneva Switzerland, WISeKey has departments which solve advanced e-security issues for organisations in many sectors, including defense, health, education, finance, and government.
WISeKey works with leading solution and technology partners for project implementation and it participates actively in efforts with global working groups and initiatives such as the OASIS group, Liberty Alliance, Clinton Global Initiative, OISTE (the organisation for secure electronic transactions), ITU, WTO (World Trade Organisation), and UN World Tourism Organisation.

Throughout more than ten years in business, WISeKey has continuously built trusted operational capabilities. WISeKey has built its own high security data centre in Geneva and is currently finalising another data centre in Bilbao, Spain. Additionally, it has a partner relationship that enables it to access sensitive projects and systems like IT-enabled military bunkers under the Swiss Alps, which are operated by the Swiss Army.
WISeKey is proud to sponsor Alinghi, the Defender of the 33rd America's Cup. During this event, the company will release its next generation of WISeAuthentic products, including WISeNetBook and ekey+, a portable secure ID device for organisations and executives needing access to sensitive data. Its latest revolutionary technology and service has seduced luxury watch-makers like Hublot, and contributes to their efforts to promote e-commerce and end counterfeiting.
