PKI and Encryption Strategy

Assessment and Planning:

  • Identify Assets: Conduct a thorough assessment to identify sensitive data and information that require protection through encryption.
  • Define Requirements: Determine encryption standards (e.g., AES-256) based on regulatory requirements and data sensitivity levels.
  • Scope and Objectives: Define the scope of PKI deployment, including goals such as securing data in transit (e.g., HTTPS, VPN) and data at rest (e.g., disk encryption).

2. PKI Infrastructure Setup:

  • Certificate Authority (CA): Establish an internal CA or procure services from a trusted external CA to issue digital certificates.
  • Certificate Lifecycle Management: Implement processes for certificate issuance, renewal, revocation, and archival to ensure operational continuity.
  • Key Management: Deploy a secure key management system (KMS) to safeguard private keys and ensure compliance with cryptographic best practices…
