Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a system used to create, manage, distribute, use, store, and revoke digital certificates. Digital certificates bind public keys to identities, providing a way to verify the authenticity of parties involved in digital transactions.
PKI is a fundamental component of digital security infrastructure, enabling secure communication, electronic transactions, and digital signatures through cryptography. It ensures trust in the digital world by verifying identities and encrypting data.
