What
Unsung delivers a tailored PKI Health Check, reviewing your cryptographic environment through the lenses of governance, people, process and technology. This service identifies vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and inefficiencies, and provides prioritised recommendations to optimise security posture, reduce risk, and support strategic investment planning.
We assess the current state of your PKI service architecture, configuration, and operational processes—ensuring compliance, integrity and alignment to your business outcomes.
This service is available in both standard and "lite" formats depending on your depth and scope requirements.
How
Current State Analysis
We evaluate your PKI environment—architecture, configurations, certificate lifecycle, backup, monitoring and revocation systems—against industry standards and organisational goals.
Risk-Based Recommendations
High, medium, and low-risk findings are documented with practical mitigation strategies and rationale to inform decision-making and prioritisation.
Strategic Alignment Review
We assess how well your PKI supports your technology and security roadmap—highlighting improvements for digital transformation, Zero Trust, and post-quantum readiness.
Operational Efficiency Assessment
We identify manual processes and inefficiencies that introduce human error or performance issues and recommend automation or process enhancements.
Governance & Documentation Review
Our consultants review Certificate Policy (CP), Certificate Practice Statement (CPS), operational documentation, and compliance alignment to ensure control and audit readiness.
Tailored Health Check Report
Delivered with clarity and precision, our final report includes detailed observations, prioritised actions, and recommendations to inform technical remediation and investment cases.
