Public Key Infrastructure definition

Public Key Infrastructure. (PKI) means the architecture, organization, techniques, practices, and procedures that collectively support the implementation and operation of a digital certificate-based public key cryptographic system.

Public Key Infrastructure means the system organizing the generation and distribution of keys and Certificates.

Public Key Infrastructure. Means the policies, methods, equipment and procedures including associated software, hardware and firmware for establishing and managing a secure method for exchanging electronic information involving the use of certification certificates, digital certificates, digital signatures, public and/or private keys.
