Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) involves managing digital certificates, public and private keys, and other security elements across multiple servers.

It provides a framework for secure communication by using asymmetric encryption, where each server has a public-private key pair. The public keys are distributed widely and used to encrypt data, while the private keys are kept secret and used to decrypt the data. This ensures secure data transmission between servers. Additionally, PKI involves certificate authorities (CAs) that issue and verify the authenticity of digital certificates, adding an extra layer of trust to the system.

If your organization has its own Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) this can be used to increase the security of your EcoStruxure Building Operation system.

EcoStruxure Building Operation supports the Enrollment over Secure Transport (EST) protocol.
