Event Summary

DigiCert, a global leader in intelligent trust, announced the findings of its 2026 Global PKI Research Report, conducted by Omdia. The survey revealed that only 34% of organizations have a complete view of their digital certificates, leading to concerns about outages and security gaps. Nearly three-quarters of organizations are worried about outages from expired certificates and certificate sprawl. In response, about 80% are implementing or planning PKI modernization initiatives, with over half expecting increased PKI investment in the next one to three years. Lakshmi Hanspal, Chief Trust Officer at DigiCert, emphasized the need for centralized platforms to manage trust at scale. The report also highlighted that lack of visibility is the top challenge, and modernization efforts are improving certificate lifecycle automation and reducing outages. PKI is also expected to play a key role in securing artificial intelligence systems.
