“We expect our reliance on our PKI environment to increase over time and having a product like PKI Spotlight means that we can reliably execute on initiatives that continue to improve our security posture.”
Protecting data has never been more challenging with cyber threats ever-present and ever-morphing, remote workforces and employee turnover, and applications and devices requiring constant updates. Now, more than ever, organizations need a holistic, centralized view of all of their security components and real-time security intelligence to protect their company’s important data now and in the future. According to Gartner, “Today, in many organizations, ongoing operations and rapid (cybersecurity) incident response are hampered by the proliferation of siloed dashboards.” By 2024, organizations adopting a cybersecurity mesh architecture to integrate security tools to work as a cooperative ecosystem will reduce the financial impact of individual security incidents by an average of 90%.
“We’re excited to introduce a groundbreaking new PKI solution that solves the most difficult PKI management challenges that are not addressed by any current products and processes in the market today,” said Mark B. Cooper, president and founder of PKI Solutions. “What PKI Spotlight delivers is revolutionary – because it is the first and only solution to consolidate vital information about an organization’s PKI environment into a single view, at your fingertips. This has been challenging due to the uniquely distributed nature of PKI, adoption of locked down hardware components such as Hardware Security Modules (HSM), expanding cloud environments, and the fact that organizations might not always have dedicated resources to manage all their PKI environments.”
PKI Spotlight Empowers Organizations With Real-Time Security Intelligence
With PKI Spotlight, PKI Solutions intends to provide enterprise organizations with improved outcomes in Operational Resilience, Security Posture Management, Threat Detection, and adoption of Best Practices. It enhances an organization’s operational resilience by improving the uptime, availability, and recoverability of its PKI and HSM environments. It also improves an organization’s security posture management by maintaining the security and integrity of their PKIs with visibility into configurations that can impact identity and encryption systems. The product’s threat detection features allow IT teams to quickly spot abnormal actions in the PKI environment and its best practices features help organizations review and refine their PKI operational and configuration best practices. Overall, this improved security intelligence provided by PKI Spotlight allows IT teams to make faster, smarter, and more efficient decisions to protect their organizations’ data and provide frictionless employee and customer experiences.
