Description

Firewalls are often seen as the cornerstone of network security — but without secure, validated certificates and a healthy PKI, they can become a false sense of protection. In this webinar, we’ll explore how firewalls depend on certificates for critical functions like VPNs, SSL inspection, and Zero Trust access — and how operational gaps in PKI, such as expiring certificates, stale CRLs, or insecure templates, can silently compromise those defenses. We’ll also explain how PKI Spotlight brings real-time visibility into your PKI’s health and security posture, helping teams detect issues before they disrupt the firewall layer. If your network relies on firewalls, this is the visibility you didn’t know you were missing.
