Venafi Named "Cool Vendor" in Gartner "Cool Vendors in Data and Infrastructure Protection, 2010" Report

 

Venafi, Inc., a leading provider of automated encryption management solutions (including SSL certificate management and enterprise key management products) announced today, its inclusion as a "Cool Vendor" in the 2010 Cool Vendor report from Gartner, Inc.*

In the note, Gartner Research VP Eric Ouellet explains that "Large and small enterprises routinely use X.509 certificates and symmetric encryption keys to ensure trust relationships among systems, applications and users. Certificates used for server and application identity services fall into the "unmanaged" category, which means that they require complete manual oversight of certificate issuer, system name, expiry date and other details to prevent service interruptions. This can be a complex proposition when scaled up to hundreds of servers and applications owned by many different organizations within and enterprise. Many enterprises have attempted to formalize this process, using spreadsheets and the centralized registration o f all new X.509 certificate installations, but high-profile outages directly attributed to poor X.509 certificate management continue to occur."

Venafi Encryption Director helps organizations solve the operational challenges that come from large deployments of X.509 certificates and symmetric and private keys.
