CRISC 2023: Public Key Infrastructure

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates are used to secure IT environments in many different ways, such as through email encryption and web server HTTPS bindings. Technicians must have an understanding of how PKI certificates are requested, issued, and used. In this course, you will explore the PKI hierarchy from certification authorities (CAs) down to issued certificates, as well as the PKI certificate life cycle. Next, you will learn how to deploy a private CA on the Windows platform and how to manage PKI certificate templates. Then, you will acquire PKI certificates and configure a web server HTTPS binding. Finally, you will configure a website to allow access only from clients with trusted PKI certificates. This course can be used to prepare for the ISACA® Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC®) certification.
