Survey Findings Show Gap Regarding PKI's Role in a Zero Trust Security Strategy
Amzeal News/10409169
Only 32% of Respondents Currently Have a Zero Trust Strategy in Place
CLEVELAND - Amzeal -- 96% of North American enterprise IT security leaders say public key infrastructure (PKI) and digital certificates are essential to achieving zero trust architecture. Yet only 39% use PKI as part of their zero trust security strategy today according to an executive survey (https://info.keyfactor.com/zero-trust-pki-surve...) from Pulse Research and Keyfactor (https://www.keyfactor.com/), the leader in PKI as-a-Service (https://www.keyfactor.com/platform/cloud-pki-as...) (PKIaaS) and crypto-agility solutions. The survey explores enterprise security priorities, the challenges of zero trust strategy implementation and the use of PKI and digital certificates within a zero trust architecture.
"Adopting a zero trust strategy is an important step to ensuring a robust security posture, especially as digital transformation continues and organizations move their security to the cloud," said Chris Hickman, chief security officer at Keyfactor. "Yet the survey results reveal a concerning gap between perception and reality. While most leaders recognize that PKI is essential to a successful zero trust security strategy, most are not actively incorporating it into their identity and access management (IAM) program."

PKI is comprised of digital certificates and cryptographic keys that provide trusted and secure connections to protect user and machine identities. A zero trust model relies on trusted connections, controls and machine identity authentication to mitigate security risks and ensure machine-to-machine communications are secure.
Additional key findings:
"The proliferation of digital certificates and keys within the enterprise will continue to rise, especially as a reliance on distributed IT and the remote workforce continues," said Hickman. "Scalability is a key consideration when building out a zero trust architecture. However, PKI alone does not equate to zero trust. To be successful and fully achieve zero trust organizations also need the automation, process and security controls necessary to support it."

The survey was conducted by Pulse Research on behalf of Keyfactor and included responses from 100 North American executive and VP-level IAM leaders in enterprises with between 5,000 and 10,000+ global employees.
