Machine Identities & Management Explained
Without proper authentication management, an ever-increasing number of machine interactions inherent to digitalized processes pose a significant risk to business continuity. Unique identities enable these processes to determine if the interaction is trustworthy through the use of cryptographic keys and digital certificates. In essence, this machine identity is the digital ... Read More

Benefits of Cloud PKI vs. On-Premise PKI
As more and more businesses migrate to the cloud, it's important to understand the advantages of cloud PKI (public key infrastructure) over traditional on-premise PKI. Cloud PKI refers to hosting and maintaining an organization’s Certificate Authority (CA) and the PKI environment for provisioning and managing certificates in the cloud. Cloud ... Read More
What Is SASE & How Does It Relate to Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)?
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a comprehensive security framework that provides secure access to applications and data based on a strong digital identity, regardless of a user or machine’s location. SASE was originally defined by Gartner in 2019 as “a new package of technologies including software-defined WAN (SD-WAN), secure ... Read More
Enterprise Use Cases for a Private Certificate Authority
Use Cases for Private Certificate Authority A private Certificate Authority (CA) is an enterprise’s own Certificate Authority, which functions like a publicly-trusted CA, but is run exclusively for a specific enterprise. Many enterprises now operate their own private CA to provide tighter control of their public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates ... Read More
