PKI Audit: trust at the heart of your exchanges.

We verify the strength of your key, certificate and trust authority management — so the security of your exchanges rests on proven foundations.

What it involves

Trust cannot be assumed.

Your public key infrastructure (PKI) guarantees the authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of your exchanges. A poorly protected authority, an obsolete algorithm or a failing revocation is enough to compromise the entire chain of trust.

Our audit checks every link, from the root authority to governance, to strengthen your cryptographic foundations.

  • Strength of certificate authorities verified
  • Certificate lifecycle mastered end to end
  • Key protection and algorithms assessed (HSM, key sizes)
  • Risk-prioritised remediation plan
Audit scope

What we check.

From the root authority to governance, we examine every link in your chain of trust.

Certificate authorities (CA)

Security of root and intermediate authorities, physical and logical protection.

Certificate lifecycle

Issuance, renewal, expiry and end-to-end tracking across the estate.

Key management & storage (HSM)

Private key protection, use of hardware modules and segregation.

Algorithms & key sizes

Cryptographic compliance, adequate key sizes and anticipating obsolescence.

Revocation (CRL / OCSP)

Reliability and availability of certificate revocation mechanisms.

Governance & procedures

Certificate policies (CP/CPS), roles, key ceremonies and traceability.

How it works

From scoping to remediation.

A structured approach, from architecture to operational procedures.

  1. 1

    Scoping

    Scope, authorities in play and objectives defined with you.

  2. 2

    PKI architecture review

    Authority hierarchy, trust chains and deployment model.

  3. 3

    Technical analysis

    Keys, algorithms, HSM, revocation mechanisms and configurations.

  4. 4

    Debrief

    Prioritised report (CVSS) with technical & executive read-out.

  5. 5

    Remediation

    Concrete recommendations and re-testing of the fixes.

Deliverables

An actionable report.
