Overview
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) becomes a critical component of every enterprise IT infrastructure when it comes to confidentiality, data integrity and security in general. Every single organization today is using more or less PKI components – it might be only for Web Servers (HTTPS), data encryption (SQL encryption) or it might be even for user’s authentication (Smart Cards) and encryption (EFS, S/MIME).
PKI is sometimes difficult to understand since it relates to different areas of knowledge – IT infrastructure, security and legal policies, hardware devices (smart cards, hardware security modules).
This three-day instructor-led training provides in-depth training on designing, configuring and troubleshooting Active Directory Certificate Services (PKI) in Windows Server OS (current version is based on Windows Server 2012 R2).
