Provide Added Security in Electronic Environment with a PKI Certificate

A public key infrastructure or PKI for short is used in all different types of organizations to provide added security to electronic working environments. A PKI Certificate type of setup involves using different types of authentication certificates for gaining access to different applications or for issuing electronic signatures. Whenever a user needs to access an application or sign a document, they enter their user ID, password and then it is combined with the certificate.

A PKI Certificate Has to be generated for Every User

There are different ways in which a PKI Certificate can be generated. One common method is to use a software application to generate different certificate keys for every user within your organization. Once the key is generated it needs to be stored either locally on their computer or on another type of storage device or card. You can even allow your own employees to generate their own security keys, when you use our PKI CA authority system, available from us here at Digi-Sign.
