eTrust PKI -The Easy-to-Implement, Single Vendor PKI Solution
Overview Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is the most secure and reliable means of providing access to company information and services, ensuring privacy and trust for an organization and its internal and external users. All facets of businesses are increasingly adopting PKI, utilizing it for multiple reasons. For example, email has become the communication of choice, but how are sensitive emails being protected? Procurement is being asked to cut down on paper and use electronic purchasing, but how is this being secured and how are contracts being signed and confirmed? Banking customers want to access their account and withdraw money, but how do you trust the customer? By utilizing PKI, customer information and sensitive data can be securely processed and protected from unauthorized access. Emails can be sent and received securely, and non-repudiation can be provided for authenticity and proof of transaction. However, PKI presents several challenges, especially in the implementation stages. To assure smooth and swift setup, and to reap the full benefit of a PKI investment, today's organizations must manage their PKI securely, comprehensively and effectively.
