Chapter 13. Public Key Infrastructure and Encryption
A PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE (PKI) and encryption are used by everyone, every day. Employing the technologies and algorithms associated with them provides a secure system for transmission of data, whether the data is at rest or in motion. Ensuring the appropriate encryption algorithm is used for appropriate services will help provide a secure environment.
This chapter covers the essentials of PKI: what it is, how it works, implementation security levels, and how it is supported.
