Key Benefits

Secure service
All content is encrypted. The key is split in two – one is held by the customer and the other by the service provider – thus ensuring the service provide can not access your data.


Reduces PKI Cost and Complexity
Managed PKI Service's cloud-based approach dramatically lowers the cost and complexity of PKI by eliminating the facilities, hardware, software, personnel, training, and maintenance expenses associated with deploying traditional in-house PKIs.


Simplifies the Administrator and End-User Experience
Managed PKI Service eliminates administrator tasks, and automates the process of provisioning certificates and configuring applications to use those certificates.


Maximises Deployment Flexibility
Not only can organisations deliver multiple certificate-based security applications from a unified platform, but they can also tailor the deployment to meet their needs.


Delivers Proven, Scalable, Reliable PKI 
Symantec’s procedures, policies, and infrastructure have been proven with large enterprises, governments, and manufacturers around the world.



Managed PKI Service is a cloud-based service that enables organisations to issue, renew, and revoke digital certificates that can be used to power strong authentication, encryption, and digital signing applications. Deploy digital certificates to users and devices to:

Support unmanaged BYOD initiatives
Support mobile platforms such as Apple iOS and Google Android™ devices while maintaining secure access to enterprise resources without sacrificing the mobile user experience.


Deploy Secure Mobile Device Management
Roll out a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution for managing enterprise mobile devices.


Secure remote and local network accessDeploy certificates to mobile devices and desktops to strongly authenticate employees and partners to a wireless network or VPN.
