PKI and VPNs: Enabling Security in an Increasingly Networked World

Overview This paper explores PKI technology, building a PKI, the business case for PKI. It also examines VPNs as the killer application for PKI. The IPSec protocol provides many of these same security features for a VPN connection at the network level. However, it is through the use of a PKI that the VPN becomes a truly scalable solution for extending network communications. PKI provides a means for centralized management of encryption keys and digital certificates to authenticate communicating parties. As a standards-based approach, PKI ensures the interoperability of your VPN solution. With a secure VPN solution using PKI, businesses exploit the full potential of the Internet in a secure and scalable manner. They position themselves to realize the rewards of having fully secure, interoperable telecommunications networks.
