PKI Assessments

Gain visibility into the operational, security, and architectural risks hidden within your PKI environment.

PKI environments often evolve over years of administrative changes, platform upgrades, security updates, and expanding business requirements. Our PKI Assessments provide a comprehensive evaluation of your infrastructure, helping you uncover misconfigurations, operational weaknesses, security vulnerabilities, and identify PKI risks before they lead to outages.

Helping you move from reactive firefighting to operational confidence.

Challenges:

Limited visibility into PKI health and security posture

Lack of internal PKI expertise or operational documentation

Insight into expiring CA certificates, CRLs, or critical PKI components

Unknown exposure to AD CS attack paths and privilege escalation risks

PKI Assessments provide expert analysis and recommendation to help you:

Uncover Hidden Risks

Identify operational weaknesses, insecure configurations, and vulnerabilities before they become outages or security incidents.

Validate Security Posture

Assess your PKI against Microsoft best practices, operational standards, and known AD CS attack vectors.

Reduce Operational Uncertainty

Gain clarity into certificate authorities, revocation infrastructure, templates, dependencies, and trust relationships.

Improve Resilience

Strengthen the reliability of authentication, certificate issuance, revocation, and business-critical trust services.

Support Modernization

Build a clear roadmap for migrations, upgrades, strong certificate mapping readiness, and future PKI initiatives.

Accelerate Troubleshooting

Receive expert analysis, documentation, and prioritized remediation guidance from PKI specialists.

FAQs

What is a PKI assessment?

A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your certificate infrastructure. It uncovers misconfigurations, insecure settings, and operational weaknesses that build up over years of administrative changes, platform upgrades, and expanding business requirements, and it delivers prioritized remediation guidance from PKI specialists.

It looks at six areas: hidden operational risks, security posture against Microsoft best practices and known Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) attack vectors, clarity on certification authorities, revocation infrastructure, templates and trust relationships, resilience of issuance and revocation, modernization readiness including strong certificate mapping, and the documentation needed to troubleshoot faster.PKI Spotlight monitors certification authorities, certificate revocation lists (CRLs), Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responders, validation locations, certificate templates, certificate expirations, and hardware security module (HSM) availability. It also tracks DigiCert CertCentral issued certificates alongside your internal PKI and raises events and risks into Splunk, syslog, or email.

Three reasons come up in nearly every engagement: limited visibility into PKI health and security posture, a lack of internal PKI expertise or operational documentation, and no clear view of expiring certification authority certificates, CRLs, or other critical components. An assessment replaces guesswork with a documented picture of the environment.

A health check is a quick read on whether the core services are up and certificates are current. A full PKI assessment goes deeper: architecture, certification authority configuration, templates, permissions, revocation design, and operational practice, ending in a prioritized remediation roadmap. Start with our PKI Spot Check to see where you rank, then decide how deep to go.
