What we do

Our TOPKI platform enables the automatic enrollment and management of digital certificates and private keys on all devices. With this you can efficiently use an internal enterprise PKI with an on-premises CA or a managed PKI with a SaaS CA for standard applications and systems. TOPKI enables a hybrid CA operation as well as a migration from one CA provider to another.

What makes us successful

The success of Secardeo is based on the outstanding competence and customer orientation of its employees. Secardeo’s experts could extend their experiences during the development and operation of very large PKIs. By this, they provide valuable knowledge of technologies, products and organizational measures and project management skills.
