Cryptography: Public Key Infrastructure
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a framework used to secure communications and manage digital certificates in a network. It involves the use of both public and private keys to ensure data confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. PKI plays a critical role in securing sensitive data, enabling secure online transactions, and ensuring identity verification in online communications.…

Cryptography: Private Key Infrastructure
Private Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a crucial system that underpins the security of digital communication. It relies on public key cryptography, where pairs of keys (public and private) are used for encryption and decryption processes. PKI ensures that communication between users, systems, and devices remains secure, trusted, and confidential over open networks like the internet.…

PKI : Infra Security POV
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a critical component of modern infrastructure security, providing a framework for secure communications and data exchange over untrusted networks, like the internet. PKI leverages asymmetric cryptography to ensure confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and non-repudiation, fundamental to securing digital interactions. This article explores PKI’s role in infrastructure security, its components, implementation challenges,…
