Today the world’s data is secured with technology that in some ways acts like a passport. Like passports, this technology – a public key infrastructure (PKI) digital certificate – contains identity information related to the holder. In the digital world, digital certificates act as a “passport” for humans and the machines (such as software, code, bots, IoT/OT, laptops, and devices) they use.
