2012 PKI Book in Progress!
Great news, I’ve been working with Brian Komar, the author of the 2003 and 2008 MS Press Windows Server 2008 PKI and Certificate Security books. He has crafted the technical outline of the book and I will be working with him as a Technical Editor. So for the time being I am reviewing the book outline and writing is scheduled to start next month. The book is set to be published/released in early 2014 and will focus on Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2.
The new book will not be published by MS Press due to volume related issues. So the new book will be self-published in at least electronic format. Perhaps there will be an option for print on demand services too – I’ll have to mention that to Brian now that I think of it.
In the mean time here are some sources to get electronic copies of the 2008 book. Do NOT buy the $9700 printed copy from Amazon! I’ll sell you one of my copy for a lot less.

O’Reilly Electronic Book
Is the 2012 PKI Electronic book still available? I do not see it listed on any of the links above.
Thx.
Unfortunately there was never a 2012 book release. We are still working on a new book, but at this point it will be 2016 focused with 2012 content as well. No official release date at this point.
ok, Thank you!
Anxiously awaiting the new book!!!
Thanks for the interest! Hope to have something to update in the future – so stay tuned!
This year maybe?
We are rebuildig our PKI env. and wanted to read some good material. 🙂
Excellent question! I wish I could provide a firm date, but I don’t have one. That being said, I believe 2016 is unlikely to see a release.
Is the 2016 PKI book available?
Plans are underway to put a new team together to work on the book. Stay tuned for more details!
Eagerly waiting :). Any chance of launching the book in 2018.
Unlikely, it’s like to be early 2019 at the earliest.
Hi Mark, guessing the book is still in process as of April 2019 – just checking
Let’s call it a passion project now. Hoping to have some time to dedicate to a Fresh 2019 book – all fresh material of course.
Hi Mark, guessing the book is still in process as of October 2019 – just checking
Nothing new to update, but it’s on the agenda for a completely new book next year.
Good evening, is there a date for the release of the planned book?
We are now planning our own, ground up book for Server 2019. Stay tuned for more details next year.
Hi Mike, any update on the book?
I am actively working on the outline!
Hey Mike,
Any update on the 2019 PKI book?
Does it still count to say “It’s on the to-do list???”
