Beschreibung
Learn implementation, automation, and the implications of introducing Public Key Infrastructure in your organization. This book will not only guide you in implementing PKI, but also help you understand exactly what is happening and why, and how to properly manage digital certificates wherever they exist.
Author Julian Ashbourn starts by discussing the basics of PKI and its primary applications, such as server identification, authentication for VPNs, email encryption, and much more. Further, he demonstrates how to work with digital certificates and how a PKI is used to encrypt sensitive data. Biometrics and PKI is discussed next, followed by the conventional infrastructure setup of PKI. Moving forward, you will learn what PKI certificate authentication is required in Kubernetes, and gain an understanding of the container model and its implications for PKI. You'll also learn more about certificate authorities, certificate expiry, and methodologies for security. Implementing a PKI is discussed next along with its technicalities and required skills, such as RFC and crypto standards. Finally, you will learn how to embed a PKI culture in your workplace, how to maintain it, and how to ensure accountability.
After reading this book, you will understand PKI infrastructure, implementation, its components, and its maintenance.
You will:
- Understand the certificates requirements and how to maintain them
- Master the use of SSL/TLS certificates
- Gain an understanding of the container model and its implications
- Plan and document PKI requirements during new acquisitions and mergers
