Entrust Authority

Managed Services PKI

Public key infrastructure and digital certificates are a prerequisite for securing high-value transactions, authenticating identities and communicating sensitive information online. Digital certificates provide organizations and users the ability to secure a wide range of applications already in use within your organization, such as Adobe® PDFs, Microsoft® Word, Microsoft® Outlook®, files and folders as well as VPN-related products.

But what if you seek a method to do this quickly, with predictable up-front costs and without the need for in-house PKI expertise?

With Entrust Managed Services PKI, you can leverage the convenience of a full PKI without an expensive upfront investment, in-house experts or need for secure facilities.

Entrust Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)

Public key infrastructure or PKI refers to a system that provides certificate management for digital certificates. Digital certificates contain public key pairs that can be used for encryption, digital signature and authentication security. Entrust PKI security solutions help government agencies and corporations to secure their digital identities and information.

Specialized "passport PKI" is used by governments to verify and secure data stored on a chip imbedded in passports issued to citizens. Epassport PKI involves the use of PKI by governments to secure data stored on a chip imbedded in a passport. The government acts as a certification authority that issues the digital certificates used in an ePassport system.

Entrust is a trusted provider of network security solutions that include digital certificates, managed PKI certificates, two factor-authentication, ssl certificates, token authentication, smart card PKI and encryption software.
