Join us Thursday, March 26 at 10:00 AM PT
Description
As organizations evaluate X9 PKI, many quickly discover it’s more complex than it first appears. In this webinar, we’ll break down what X9 PKI is, what it isn’t, and the challenges teams encounter when implementing it in real environments. We’ll also discuss shortened certificate lifetimes, common mutual TLS pitfalls, and what organizations should understand before committing to this path.
Webinar Recap
X9 PKI is getting more attention, but as discussed in this session, it’s not as straightforward as it may seem. We covered what X9 PKI is, how it differs from publicly trusted PKI, and why organizations are running into challenges as they begin exploring it.
Polling showed that most attendees are still evaluating X9 PKI, with many already relying on — or anticipating issues with — mutual TLS.
Key Takeaways
- X9 PKI requires explicit trust — it’s not automatically trusted
- Implementation is more complex than expected
- Mutual TLS is a common challenge area
- Planning ahead is critical despite shifting timelines
