PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE

PKI Builder

Trustis specialises in building PKIs and uses its established methodology to purpose-build a flexible, low-risk, fixed price PKI, guaranteed to work using the technology that best suits the application.

The package includes a review of business requirements, design and architecture, written policies and procedures, legal and regulatory compliance, technology selection and implementation, consultancy, and pre-production testing through to live deployment.

At the end of the PKI Builder process the client has a fully developed, standards compliant infrastructure that can be run in house or hosted by Trustis at our Trust Service Centre.
 

PKI Elements

Quite often, organisations have to work within pre-determined constraints which prevent starting with a clean sheet of paper. For example, they may have already selected and built PKI and encryption software or hardware but may not have developed their Policies and Procedures. Deciding digital certificate profiles is another crucial area that is often done in haste but needs advice before going live.

In such cases Trustis can work with the organisation and back-fill the missing parts. Policy development and legal compliance in online security are areas in which Trustis has particular expertise, and because we have worked on so many pki developments, we will almost certainly have prior knowledge of your type of application and its policy and regulatory needs.
 

PKI Feasibility

It's usually a surprise to most people when they learn how PKI sits behind many of the services they use on a daily basis without knowing it.

PKI is an extremely reliable and useful technology and should sometimes be considered as a core technology for applications where strong authentication and identities have to be properly managed.

Trustis is product neutral and vendor independent and we use all mainstream PKI and online security products including CAs, HSMs, tokens, smartcards and CMSs (Certificate Management System), Trustis can provide vital advice and guidance on where, how and what to use.

You can 'get a lot of bang for your buck' by using our knowledge and of course reduce the risk of making a wrong decision.
