Deploying an in-house PKI is a complex undertaking that requires procuring and maintaining hardware and software, designing the PKI, and operating highly available validation services like OCSP.
Hefty investments in infrastructure, routine maintenance, disaster recovery, specialized talent, training, and secure facilities—driving up both capital (CapEx) and operational (OpEx) expenses.
The expertise needed to deploy, manage, and maintain a compliant in-house PKI is difficult to find and hard to retain, leading to operational bottlenecks and security gaps.
Legacy PKI systems often lack strong certificate lifecycle management capabilities, forcing PKI and security teams to rely on manual processes or piecemeal tools—both inefficient and highly error-prone.
On-prem PKI struggles to scale and lacks the flexibility to support modern use cases like multi-cloud, DevOps, IoT, and more importantly, post-quantum cryptography (PQC).
Maintaining a private PKI in-house demands constant manual effort—from daily operations and hardware refreshes to compliance. Over time, this becomes a resource-intensive and unsustainable burden on PKI and security teams.
Without integrated certificate lifecycle management and strong policy enforcement, in-house private PKI leads to mismanaged certificates raising the risk of outages, security breaches, and regulatory violations.
Frequent churn within PKI teams can leave critical infrastructure unmanaged and vulnerable, putting organizations at risk, and forcing already-strained IT teams to take on legacy systems they’re not equipped to manage.
In-house PKI often falls behind in adapting to changes and industry developments, like evolving compliance mandates and the shift toward post-quantum cryptography—weakening long-term security posture.
