 AppViewX is trusted by the world’s leading organizations to reduce risk, ensure compliance, and increase visibility through automated certificate lifecycle management. The AVX ONE platform provides complete certificate lifecycle management and PKI-as-a-Service using streamlined automation workflows to prevent outages, reduce security incidents and enable crypto-agility.

Certificates are the foundation of secure and encrypted communication, ensuring trust by authenticating users, applications, and devices. However, certificates rely on public key cryptography and encryption algorithms that will eventually be broken by powerful quantum computers. Therefore, transitioning to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and quantum resistant certificates is now a must. As NIST has now published the first set of standard PQC encryption algorithms and guidance on PQC transition, it is time to start preparing to be quantum safe. Join us for this expert-led webinar, where we’ll guide you through the essential steps to start getting quantum-ready.

 Key takeaways:
* Understand the urgency: Why PQC migration is crucial
* Your Choice of Algorithms: NIST PQC standardization and future outlook
* Actionable strategies: Learn practical steps to start your PQC readiness with certificate visibility, automation and control–the essentials for Crypto-Agility.

 Hear from Ganesh Gopalan, specialist in certificate lifecycle management, and Kevin McKeogh, a cryptographic expert and GP HSM Product Lead, bringing you a comprehensive perspective from both sides. With expertise in certificate management and cryptography, this webinar will provide you with practical guidance to begin your PQC readiness and journey to future-proof your certificates.

Non-human identities present a relatively new challenge for enterprise security teams. Non-human identities, including digital certificates, service accounts and bots, secrets, and OAuth tokens, frequently have broad privileges and are an attractive attack vector for adversaries. Getting visibility to these identities and managing the risk associated with them can be new territory for many security teams.  

Recent research from the Enterprise Strategy Group shows  that inadequate management can increase risk with consequences running the gamut from downed systems to compliance concerns to data breaches. With non-human identity security concerns now getting board level attention, this webinar will explain the management challenges, how enterprises are innovating to address those challenges, and provide best practices in addressing these challenges.

Microsoft CA, also known as Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS), has been the go-to solution for organizations' private PKI needs for many years. However, maintaining and securing Microsoft CA is getting more and more difficult and costly. It’s now time to migrate to a more cost effective and efficient PKI-as-a-Service (PKIaaS) to support the growing need of private trust certificates.

Join Ganesh Gopalan, General Manager & Vice President, Identity Security for PKI & CLM at AppViewX for an insightful webinar discussing the compelling reasons to transition from a Microsoft CA to PKIaaS and simple steps to ensure a successful migration.

The webinar will cover:

● The State of PKI Today and the Role of Microsoft CA
● Pain points with Microsoft CA that are driving organizations to consider PKIaaS
● Simple steps to effectively streamline the migration from MS CA to PKIaaS

Simple Steps to Migrate Your Microsoft CA to PKI-as-a-Service

Kubernetes is a highly complex environment to secure and native security controls offered by Kubernetes and other open-source solutions often fall short. 

PKI-based TLS certificates are highly-recommended for Kubernetes security. With identities, authentication, and encryption - TLS certificates offer an effective way of securing multiple layers in Kubernetes, encompassing the Ingress traffic, Service Mesh and pod-to-pod communications, and Kubernetes infrastructure components. 

However, managing a high-volume of short-lived TLS certificates in Kubernetes is not easy. Issuing certificates at DevOps speed while ensuring certificates are valid, secure, and compliant, can become extremely daunting for security teams. 

The key to navigating these challenges and bringing security up to speed with DevOps lies in simplifying certificate lifecycle management for Kubernetes. 

Join our webinar with, Harshana Morthy, Lead Principal Solutions Architect, AppViewX for a deeper dive on: 

- Fortifying Kubernetes security with PKI and TLS/mTLS certificates 
- The challenges of managing certificates across Kubernetes environments 
- How to simplify and modernize Certificate Lifecycle Management to harden Kubernetes security and enable DevOps speed and agility

Simplifying Certificate Lifecycle Management for Kubernetes Environments

Despite the many promising opportunities and benefits, there is little doubt that quantum computers with sufficient processing power will eventually break today’s widely used encryption algorithms, like RSA and ECC, with relative ease. Threat actors know this and are harvesting valuable encrypted data with the intent of decrypting it in the quantum future.
  
Given this imperative, it is critical that organizations jumpstart their post-quantum preparation today. As cryptography is foundational to internet security, organizations must prioritize building crypto-agility, to quickly and securely replace or update vulnerable keys and certificates.  

Join this webinar to explore and understand: 

- The impact of quantum computing on cybersecurity 
- Why crypto-agility is critical to defending against quantum threats 
- Key steps to build crypto-agility  
- The benefits of being crypto agile today   
- How AppViewX CERT+ Enables Crypto-agility at Scale

In this webinar, we will dive deeper into the complexity, challenges, and security risks associated with managing public key infrastructure (PKI) and digital certificates. Implementing a well-defined certificate management strategy, and investing in end-to-end automation have become a necessity.

Join Muralidharan Palanisamy to learn about: 

- The impact of digital transformation and changing dynamics of certificate management
