Managed Public Key Infrastructure. Data, encryption keys and algorithms play crucial roles in the overall managed security services. Managed PKI incorporates delivery of the right key, at the right time and at the right place. The challenge lies in maintaining trust with the cloud provider, with the probability of exposure of managed keys during a catastrophic incident. The infrastructure includes an encryption client/key generating server and keys arranged in a hierarchical model. Cipher text and data key is then stored together for durability and passed up to the client master to perform key operations.
Proveho Networks provides key management elements including self-managed Cloud Service Provider, use-case basis for encryption, asymmetric vs symmetric keying, data at rest, in-process or in motion and encryption across varying service models.
