HID Global, a worldwide leader in trusted identity solutions, and Keyfactor, a provider of secure digital identity management solutions, announced a collaboration that will improve how organizations secure data and protect privacy.

Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer certificates establish an encrypted connection between a browser or user's computer and a server or website to ensure data security, privacy and authenticity.

"Misconfigured systems, unprotected enrollment servers such as Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol, or other weaknesses can be exploited by hackers or rogue users to obtain fraudulent certificates that enable system access or"imposter" certificates that represent other users with elevated access," said Chris Hickman, Chief Security Officer at Keyfactor.

To manage the HID IdenTrust certificates, Keyfactor offers the most complete and scalable cloud-based platform for the enterprise.

"The combination of HID IdenTrust digital certificates and the Keyfactor platform enables our enterprise customers to achieve frictionless management and deployment of digital certificates. Customers can use this combined solution to achieve greater control of their information security assets along with effective risk management."
