Enterprise Encryption and Key Management

Enterprise encryption requires centralised management of policy, keys, operation and audit. Many encryption methods require the use of keys specific to individual users, the corporation or for auditing purposes to enable enterprise access. These keys (e.g. PGP or X.509 S/MIME) require generation, distribution, revocation, storage and management.

A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is the products and policies required to provide effective organizational key management. Some organizations choose to buy PKI as a service from a trusted third party while others run one or many PKI to meet strategic key management and encryption requirements.
