Who leads security at Entrust

What the company sells

Entrust sells identity-centric security products, including a Cryptographic Security Platform, public key infrastructure, hardware security modules, key and secrets management, identity verification and card issuance systems. Entrust says its cryptographic security works to reduce risk, protect sensitive data, and enable compliance at scale, from verified onboarding and card issuance to trusted access and transactions.

Entrust says its Cryptographic Security Platform unifies PKI, HSMs, certificate lifecycle management, and key and secrets management in a cryptographic trust layer for centralized visibility, governance, and automation. Entrust says deployment is on premises or as a cloud-based service. Entrust says the platform provides cryptographic inventory, CBOM support, and policy control to plan and govern algorithm transitions. The Entrust Cryptographic Security Platform enables organizations to discover, own, and govern cryptographic assets wherever their data lives. The platform's compliance management capability inventories cryptographic assets, imports and exports CBOMs, applies policy frameworks, and monitors risk and compliance posture from a unified dashboard.

Entrust Certificate Manager is a platform that discovers, inventories, monitors, and automates certificates across hybrid environments and multi-CA ecosystems. Entrust says Certificate Manager can issue, renew, and revoke certificates across Entrust and third-party CAs from a single control point. Certificate Manager covers discovery, audit, issuance, renewal, and revocation of certificates. Entrust says Certificate Manager delivers automated lifecycle management that scales with 47-day certificate lifecycles and growing machine identities. Certificate Manager can be deployed across on-prem, private, and public cloud environments. Entrust offers on-premises, cloud, or hybrid PKI solutions. Entrust IoT Security allows organizations to secure IT and OT devices through scalable machine and user identity management.

The Entrust Cryptographic Security Platform Key Manager, formerly KeyControl, is a keys and secrets management solution that combines key lifecycle management with a decentralized, vault-based architecture. Entrust says Key Manager automates the lifecycle of encryption keys, including key storage, backup, distribution, rotation, and key revocation. Entrust says BYOK and HYOK integrations with CSP Key Manager reduce reliance on cloud provider trust models. Entrust says Key Manager acts as a universal key management server for KMIP-compatible virtualized environments. Entrust says security and compliance teams use its solutions to centralize key control and enforce encryption policies.

Entrust says nShield HSMs move keys out of software and into tamper-resistant hardware. Entrust states that over 100,000 Entrust nShield HSMs are deployed globally across government, financial, and technology organizations with 150+ partner integrations. Entrust says the modules are FIPS 140-2 and 140-3 certified, and that nShield HSMs can be deployed on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid. Entrust says its Security World architecture enables unlimited key storage without traditional HSM complexity. Entrust offers subscription-based access to dedicated nShield HSMs for cloud-based cryptographic services.

Entrust says Entrust Identity Verification is built on Onfido technology. Entrust says its identity verification supports KYC, AML, eIDAS 2.0, and other regulatory requirements. Entrust Identity Verification lets organizations design drag-and-drop verification workflows and validate identities using biometrics, documents, and trusted data sources. Entrust Identity Verification integrates with Microsoft Entra ID. Entrust adds identity verification within Okta workflows to determine when additional verification is required.

Entrust's Card Issuance Systems provide personalized, high-volume issuance across government and financial markets. Entrust offers a cloud-based IAM solution with multi-factor authentication (MFA), credential-based passwordless access, and SSO. Digital and electronic signature solutions from Entrust help establish trusted identities and ensure authenticity for digital documents, emails, code, and mobile devices. Entrust CloudControl provides unified security and visibility across hybrid clouds.

Entrust's Cryptographic Center of Excellence helps organizations move from awareness to action on post-quantum readiness. Entrust offers PQ readiness assessments, tools, and direct access to Entrust experts. Entrust says its PKI and HSMs support the NIST standardized PQC algorithms, and that its solutions support a hybrid approach combining today's algorithms with PQC. Entrust says its solutions facilitate more than 400 government programs in over 100 countries. Entrust says it has been securing identities for nearly 60 years.^{[1][2][5][8][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]}
