Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
A Public Key Infrastructure is an enabling, foundational technology that allows organizations
to build security solutions that leverage a common trust. The PKI provides an organization
with the facility to create, distribute, and manage keys used by computers and users.
These keys can be used for business functions such as sending secure email, encrypting
data on disks to protect against loss or theft, and securing communications, such
as with virtual private networks (VPNs). LSU A&M has chosen to utilize the InCommon
Certificate Service for its PKI. Read More >>
