Many of Fujitsu’s customers seek to enhance the security of their IT infrastructure, and PKI, in the form of Microsoft Certificate Authority(CA), is often crucial to the upgrade. The security of the PKI is founded upon the encryption keys. If these keys are compromised, the entire PKI is at risk. HSMs provide a root of trust for these keys and therefore the PKI overall.

Thales, a leader in the HSM market, provides a cloud-based key management and HSM as a service, Thales Data Protection On Demand (DPoD). The DPoD service -HSM On Demand for Microsoft ADCS (Active Directory CertificateServices) combined with the managed Microsoft CA service from Fujitsu provides a highly secure and convenient end-to-end service for enterprise PKIs.

Fujitsu has added the solution to its bundle of managed services across their European business unit. They recognize offering Microsoft CA with DPoD gives them an easy, cost-effective way to provide companies access to Microsoft CA-based PKI technology with secure key management in a broad variety of use cases. Fujitsu provides the fully bundled managed service and requires no technical involvement from its customers.

Fujitsu’s new managed service is a perfect example of how Thales Managed Service Provider (MSP) partners can use DPoD to create new data protection as-a-service offerings and grow their revenue streams.
