This chapter provides an overview of the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) technologies that are widely used in today's computing and networking. PKI can be used as a framework for security services such as encryption, authentication, and nonrepudiation. Because you can use PKI to build scalable solutions, PKI is becoming an important solution for authenticating virtual private networks (VPNs).
