There are two steps to follow:

Step 1: Administrative phase

Should you wish to order test CPS cards or register authorisations for test software, you may:

• read our complete products offer ;
• place an order
  To place an order, select your Profile and your Structure, then choose “Produits de développement. Commander des produits de développement : carte et/ou certificat logiciel de test" (Test products for products, cards and/or test software).

Step 2: Technical phase

Use the card you validated after step 1 in order to connect with the Trusted Platform IGC-Santé. You will be able to order, withdraw, monitor and revoke test certificates through the IHM or Webservice interface.
In order to do so, make sur you have inserted your test card in the card reader.

The IGC-Santé is dedicated to the health sector and follows strict procedures in terms of data collection, professional identification, and works with certified authorities (RPPS register, etc.).

The certificates issued by the IGC guarantee the security of software or electronic cards, such as the CPS card.

The IGC also manages the publication of these certificates and can revoke them – this is signalled to the apps using certificates in revocation listings.

The MSSanté network system creates a Secure Space, which is managed by the ANS. This Secure Space includes messaging service providers under contract with the Agency (health structures, operators, administrators, etc.) in order to secure globally the electronic messaging services proposed to health professionals. There are many messaging services integrated to the Secure Space, which protects the sharing of health data.

There are two main reasons for the creation of IGC-Santé :

• guaranteeing the security of private keys and certificates issued by the ANS: the access to these private keys must be limited in order to prevent duplicates or their installation more than one device;
• maintaining a continuity in services: many health apps used to work on certificates issued by former CKI that ceased their activity in January 2021. These apps must be compatible with certificates issued by the IGC-Santé.

In addition, these certificates meet the security standards (risk analysis, safety policies), or “Certifying Policies” that comply with the PGSS-IS guidelines.

MSSanté is a secure messaging system that enables authorised professional to share sensitive patient data in a safe manner, in the context of the patient’s care monitoring. As of now, billing and invoicing data are not included in this perimeter.

MSSanté is an umbrella term which refers to the network of secure messaging services dedicated to healthcare, integrated in a Secure Space. Mailiz is one of the messaging services that is part of this Secure Space, which is managed by the ANS and proposed to health professionals by the Ordres de Santé (Health Governing Bodies).
