Build a secure foundation for PKI-enabled applications.
By using a public key infrastructure (PKI), organizations enable customers, partners, and employees to authenticate systems and users. Within a PKI, a certificate authority assigns each system or user a unique identity—a digital certificate—that allows the certificate holder to work within the protected environment. PKIs deliver a virtually seamless experience for users while providing trusted security.
Unfortunately, PKIs can be vulnerable to attack. If a certificate authority is compromised, digital certificates can be issued to anyone. If a server’s encryption key is stolen, its digital certificate can be used to impersonate a server or perform unauthorized transactions. nCipher ensures the integrity of your PKI by enabling you to secure the process of issuing certificates and to proactively manage encryption keys to prevent their loss or theft.
