Keyfactor: Why You Need to Care About Machine Identity

Keyfactor

Machine identity is an essential part of ensuring companies maintain a good level of data security and structural integrity. 

The management of digital certificates and keys allows all internal traffic to be encrypted, seriously narrowing the attack surface of an enterprise. 

In this episode of the EM360 Podcast, Editor Matt Harris speaks to Chris Hickman, Chief Security Officer at Keyfactor, to discuss:

  • Where machine identity trends are heading
  • Why companies are paying more attention to machine identity
  • Identity as a single thread

Keyfactor is the machine and IoT identity platform for modern enterprises. The company helps security teams manage cryptography as critical infrastructure by simplifying PKI, automating certificate lifecycle management, and enabling crypto-agility at scale. Companies trust Keyfactor to secure every digital key and certificate for multi-cloud enterprises, DevOps, and embedded IoT security.
