IDnomic PKI

Protecting your business-critical infrastructure, on each stage of your digital transformation project by delivering trusted digital identities for all IT use cases.

IDnomic PKI is a software suite enabling the management of trusted IT infrastructures based on the X.509v3 standards. Our solution manages the lifecycle of electronic certificates and the associated Certification Authorities (CAs).
Its architecture is based on a modular approach that combines a high level of flexibility for evolutive needs with an ergonomic and modern design, offering an easy-to-use interface for our customers.

IDnomic PKI suite, a world leading solution, provides powerful and advanced PKI services to secure organizations, ensure their IT governance and compliance, and simplifying the process of your digital identity management.

IDnomic PKI use cases

 

With a strong focus on flexibility and functional richness, all industry segments can benefit from IDnomic PKI features, enabling them to implement all type of use cases required:

 

  • Enterprises can manage digital identities for employees for logical access to corporate IT system, remote access via VPN, protect Wifi connections and the complete company network infrastructure.
  • Financial institutions can protect their sensitive assets, secure corporate banking, and ensure legal frameworks, such as the PSD2 directive.
  • Government, ministries, and administrations that plan to issue digital identities for strong authentication and information security for civil servants, national and regional ICT projects and citizen centric online services.
  • Public and private organizations, that need to comply to critical network infrastructure regulation, e.g. NIS v2 or the Cyber Resilience Act.
  • Telecommunication companies that want to proceed to 4G(LTE) to 5G migration mandates by 3PP standards, requiring the issuance of electronic certificates.
  • Industries that focus on IT/OT convergence and want to deploy in large scale secure, trusted identities to all kind of connected objects, based on numerous industry standard enrollment protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I migrate easily from Microsoft® to IDnomic PKI?
IDnomic PKI has a particular focus on integration with the Microsoft®ecosystem. In fact, by means of our AEP module, IDnomic PKI can replace Mircosoft® ACDS PKI services without need for migration. Our product simply takes over certificate production, allowing to define all type of certificate extensions and workflows.
Is IDnomic PKI also adapted for SME/SMB?

IDnomic PKI allows to define all certificate types and workflows that are typically used also in SME/SMBs, like strong authentication, e-mail signature and encryption, VPN access. You can choose to install it On-Premise or use it as a service provided with attractive SLAs. For network infrastructure, we propose IDnomic PKI Ready2Go, a Cloud based PKI Service with predefined certificate type and workflows.

Does IDnomic PKI support Certificate Lifecycle Management?

IDnomic PKI interfaces with IDnomic CLM, a complementary product in charge of Certificate Lifecycle Management. Both products are designed to work together seamlessly. Of course, IDnomic PKI can be interfaced by other CLM products available in the market.

What HSM does IDnomic PKI support?
IDnomic PKI supports all the Trustway HSM portfolio from Eviden. Besides this, other HSM vendors are also integrated with our PKI, namely Thales, Utimaco, nCipher, AWS (Cloud based HSM).
Is IDnomic PKI also available as a Cloud service?

IDnomic PKI is available both On-Premise and in the Cloud. The solution can be installed at customer site with support from our professional services team or as Software as a Service (SaaS) in Cloud, delivered from our highly secure datacenters in France. More info can be found here.

What exactly means multi-tenancy in IDnomic PKI?
IDnomic PKI implements multi-tenancy by design. This very powerful feature allows to configure within one single instance, several partitions, completely isolated one from each other with each one managing an entire PKI hierarchy. Especially for organizations and companies that have a lot of separate entities with different identity management policies, IDnomic PKI multi-tenancy constitutes a key differentiator in terms of cost savings and ease-of-use.
Does IDnomic PKI also support PQC ?

Post-Quantum Cryptography is clearly a focus for IDnomic PKI. We are preparing for the future by analyzing and considering recent post-quantum proof algorithms to be supported. This is typically the case in through hybrid certificates, where IDnomic PKI allows the coexistence of classic asymmetric cryptography with PQC ones. Hence, IDnomic PKI supporting hybrid certificates will be PQC-ready by End of 2023.

Can I use IDnomic PKI with Microsoft® Intune®?

Yes. IDnomic PKI has integrated support for Intune®, which allows to enroll not only Microsoft® mobile devices and workstations, but also other ones, e.g. Android® smartphones.

PRODUCT ARCHITECTURE

IDnomic PKI has been designed in a modular approach, separating electronic certificate generation on one side and lifecycle management workflows (enrollment, issuance, revocation, etc.) on the other. It is in particular supporting different cryptographic devices and issuance protocols.

IDnomic PKI – a modular solution

ID CA Certification Authority

Central entity, in charge of the construction of trusted digital identities. It is responsible for the creation, organization and management of Certification Authorities and the production of certificates.

ID RA Registration Authority

This module manages the lifecycle of certificates and defines the different workflows associated to certificate profiles and their delivery modes. It addresses all machine use cases and supports multiple enrollment protocols (ACME, EST, SCEP, CMP, AEP).

ID OCSP
Online Certificate Status Protocol

Provides real time proof of the validity status of a digital certificate (revoked, suspended, active). This component comes in addition to Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL) natively supported by IDnomic PKI.
