As quantum computing continues to evolve, the security of our digital infrastructure is under increasing scrutiny. While quantum computers promise groundbreaking advancements, they also pose a significant threat to the cryptographic algorithms that protect sensitive information across the internet. Enter Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) which is our path to quantum safe security. In this blog, we’ll…

AppViewX 2025 Predictions: Machine Identity Security, Certificate Lifecycle Management and PKI
In 2024, we certainly witnessed some interesting trends and disruptions in machine and non-human management, certificate lifecycle management (CLM), and PKI. In research from the Enterprise Strategy Group, non-human (machine) identities are outnumbering human identities in enterprise environments by more than 20:1. Following on Google’s previous proposal on reducing TLS certificate validity to 90 days,…
