PKI (Public Key Infrastructure), is a framework that enables the encryption of public keys and includes their affiliated crypto-mechanisms. The underlying purpose of any PKI setup is to manage the keys and certificates associated with it, thereby creating a highly secure network environment for use by applications and hardware. X.509 certificates and public keys form the cornerstone of PKI, acting as the mechanism through which cryptography can be established for an endpoint – consequently, PKI may refer to any software, policy, process, or procedure that may be employed while configuring and managing those certificates and keys.
