ALT The debut of Keyfactor‘s Trust Control Plane has been formally announced Keyfactor is a global leader in trust infrastructure for machines and artificial intelligence (AI). This new platform addresses the growing susceptibilities in increasingly decentralized digital ecosystems by introducing a unified operating model that combines business cryptography and machine identity management into a single, coherent architecture. The Fracturing of Traditional Digital Trust The Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), digital certificates, and cryptographic keys that make up the architecture supporting digital trust were viewed as static utilities. IT departments usually employed a “set-and-forget” approach, working with these systems primarily when they were first deployed or during a high-profile network outage caused by a certificate expiration.
