The Role of PKI in OT Networks
Andreas Philipp, Sr. Business Development Manager, IoT at Keyfactor
The need for rapid and reliable production of customized products is paramount in today's dynamic manufacturing landscape. Achieving this requires smart production systems that communicate within highly agile environments, ensuring fast manufacturing processes and adherence to tight delivery schedules. However, integrating heterogeneous machinery and IT applications often complicates digital transformation efforts.
Standards such as OPC UA simplify this process by enabling quick and easy connections between various machines and existing IT environments. One of the significant benefits of OPC UA is its robust security standards, which ensure secure data transmission both locally and over the Internet.
But how do these advancements intersect with PKI services and certificate management systems? Join us for an in-depth webinar where we explore the current status of OPC UA standardization, the integration challenges, and the solutions from a PKI manufacturer’s perspective. Learn how PKI can enhance security and efficiency in OT networks.

Open Industrial PKI OiPKI – Securing the connected Factory
Florian Handke, Campus Schwarzwald | Andreas Philipp, Keyfactor
Join our upcoming webinar, "Open Industrial PKI OiPKI - Securing the Connected Factory," to learn how to ensure secure data exchange in the digitalization of your factory. During this session, we will discuss the importance of x.509 certificates in facilitating essential cybersecurity mechanisms for reliable communication, both on the web and on the factory floor. Whether for device identification or safeguarding data communication with TLS, x.509 certificates are the foundation for a secure digital future. However, many factories face the challenge of not having a PKI infrastructure to issue and manage certificates. That's why we are excited to introduce the Open Industrial PKI (OiPKI), a free service for issuing and managing x.509 certificates that makes it easy for you to get started. Don't miss this opportunity to learn how OiPKI can help secure your factory's digitalization efforts.
In this webinar, we will cover:
- The role of x.509 certificates in securing data exchange in the digitalization of the factory
- The challenges of not having a PKI infrastructure to issue and manage certificatesHow the

Bring Your Own Root of Trust (BYORoT): How PKI Bridges the Gap with Hardware
Guillaume Crinon, Director, IoT Business Strategy, Keyfactor
IoT devices are built around microcontrollers, microprocessors and a root of trust (RoT), which can be a secure element.
What does a car have in common with a factory programmable logic controller, a smart meter or a smart home thermostat? All of these machines and devices secure their interactions with their remote peers and services with the help of X.509 certificates.
Although certificate formats constantly evolve with new extensions and key sizes, the hardware that stores them has a much longer lifecycle, forcing chip vendors to compress certificates to fit into limited memory.
In this live webinar, join Keyfactor IoT expert Guillaume Crinon, to:
• Discuss important factors that OEMs should consider when designing a connected device.
• Examine the constraints limited hardware memory can have on certificate storage.
• Discover how Keyfactor EJBCA can issue certificates, regardless of how constrained your hardware may be.Keyfactor is an approved (ISC)2 CPE Submitter partner. Earn .75 CPE credit by viewing this webinar.
