Enterprise PKIaaS You Fully Own

PKIaaS (Public Key Infrastructure as a Service) is a managed PKI model in which the provider designs, builds, operates, and maintains the PKI environment in cloud platform for the customer. Unlike traditional PKI, where the customer is responsible for deploying infrastructure, managing certificate authorities, handling lifecycle operations, and maintaining availability, PKIaaS shifts the operational burden to the service provider while allowing the customer to retain policy and governance control.

No. PKIaaS provides dedicated PKI experts on demand, managing your security infrastructure so your internal team can focus on core business priorities. This includes guiding your organization through the PQC transition strategy as well.

PKIaaS is designed for rapid, seamless deployment. Unlike traditional PKI setups that require lengthy procurement and complex installations, PKIaaS gets your infrastructure up and running quickly, with minimal disruption to existing operations.

PKIaaS supports a comprehensive range of certificate types including workstation authentication, web server certificates (SSL/TLS), Kerberos authentication, and hybrid certificates. It is compatible with industry-standard enrollment protocols including SCEP, WSTEP, EST, and ACME for streamlined issuance and renewal.

PKIaaS allows organizations to define cryptographic standards and policies, such as certificate policies, validity periods, and key usage rules across all environments. It automates governance and policy enforcement, supports customizable certificate profiles, and aligns with industry security frameworks, including emerging Post-Quantum Cryptography standards.

Yes. PKIaaS is built on a high-availability, single-tenant architecture that scales effortlessly across DevOps, Cloud, and IoT environments. It supports Microsoft Intune, UEM/MDM platforms, and enterprise identity management systems, making it well-suited for even the most complex enterprise infrastructures.

PKIaaS enforces strict security controls through FIPS 140-3 Level-3 HSMs housed in our secure datacenter, with Encryption Consulting responsible for all firmware updates, maintenance, and operational upkeep of the HSM infrastructure. Key governance and control, however, remain entirely with the customer. Granular access controls restrict certificate issuance to authorized users and systems only, and every certificate issued is governed by automated policy enforcement, ensuring no certificate leaves your environment without meeting your defined security standards.

PKIaaS is built with crypto-agility at its core, enabling your organization to adapt quickly as cryptographic standards evolve without overhauling your entire infrastructure. It supports one-click CA switching, allowing your team to transition between certificate authorities rapidly when needed, and adheres to industry best practices. As per NIST’s finalization of Post-Quantum algorithms, PKIaaS enables hybrid certificate issuance of hybrid certificates, giving your organization a practical, low-disruption path toward quantum-safe cryptography as the transition requirements become mandatory.
