IoT, authentication and cloud, top drivers in PKI usage growth.

PKI usage surging for cloud and authentication use cases.

The study found that IT security professionals are confronting new challenges to enabling applications to use PKI. 52 percent cited lack of visibility of an existing PKI's security capabilities as their top challenge, an increase of 16 percent over the 2019 study.

"The 2020 Global PKI and IoT Trends Study shows a surge in the use of PKI credentials for cloud-based applications and enterprise user authentication, underscoring the criticality of PKI in supporting core enterprise applications."

"We are seeing increasing reliance on PKI juxtaposed with struggles by internal teams to adapt it to new market needs - driving changes to traditional PKI deployment models and methods," says John Grimm, vice president strategy for digital solutions at Entrust.
