Device attestation is used to verify a device’s authenticity and ensure that only genuine, untampered devices with approved, uncompromised software are given access to systems. It provides cryptographic evidence through digital certificates signed by a trusted certificate authority (CA). A ... Read More
You can enforce a consistent PKI policy across distributed teams by using centralized, automated enforcement with dynamic tools that integrate with your existing IT ecosystem. Manual management methods often lead to policy drift, certificate mismanagement, and security gaps. A centralized, ... Read More
Password breaches have impacted nearly every industry, from telecommunications to healthcare. As threat actors refine their attack methods, securing networks solely with passwords has become increasingly challenging. Organizations are transitioning to stronger authentication methods, such as digital certificates, to enhance ... Read More
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is like experiencing a renaissance. PKI, formerly thought to be the realm of cryptography specialists and obsolete hardware, is now a strategic enabler of business identity and access management, with one key difference: it no longer ... Read More
Modern hybrid networks comprise a mix of both managed and unmanaged devices. With static one-time authentication being inadequate, users and devices are only authenticated at the start of a session, with no follow-up checks. The lack of ongoing validation makes ... Read More
The only EAP method allowed in WPA3-Enterprise 192-bit mode is EAP-TLS, which uses X.509 certificates for client and server-side authentication. No other EAP authentication types are permitted, since they lack the cryptographic strength or mutual authentication required for the same. ... Read More
With many devices attempting to connect to the network, identifying potential risks from compromised devices becomes paramount. This is where a robust Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) integrated with RADIUS comes into play, providing continuous security validation rather than relying on ... Read More
Public Wi-Fi is available everywhere. However, behind the convenience lies a long-standing issue: unsecured Wi-Fi networks lack encryption, exposing user data to eavesdropping and attacks. Opportunistic Wireless Encryption (OWE), a method introduced with WPA3, seeks to address this issue by ... Read More
EAP-TLS is a powerful certificate-based authentication technique that has been extensively used due to its high security posture. It enables mutual authentication between the client and server and secures credentials using a TLS tunnel, making it resistant to credential theft ... Read More
You’re not alone if you have ever hit “Push” on the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) profile in your Mobile Device Management (MDM) only to find that nothing immediately happens. It’s a frustrating experience, especially when everything seems correctly configured. ... Read More
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) was never designed for an environment where devices could drift out of compliance within hours, sometimes minutes, of being trusted. And yet, many organizations still rely on static models that issue certificates based on a single ... Read More
Traditional authentication models have relied on static trust. Once a device or user is authenticated a single time they typically remain trusted indefinitely. This model assumes continuous security from a single point in time, leaving organizations vulnerable as devices fall ... Read More
