What is Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Trust Security?

Next-Generation Trust Security (NGTS) is Palo Alto Networks’ cloud-delivered platform for certificate lifecycle management, private PKI, and code signing. Palo Alto Networks introduced NGTS following its acquisition of CyberArk, which had previously acquired Venafi.

How is Keyfactor different from Palo Alto Networks NGTS?

NGTS takes a network-native approach within the Palo Alto Networks ecosystem. Keyfactor provides vendor-neutral control across PKI, certificate lifecycles, cryptographic assets, and diverse enterprise environments.

How does Keyfactor support dynamic, multi-vendor environments?

Keyfactor provides vendor-neutral PKI and certificate lifecycle management across diverse CAs, applications, cloud services, networks, devices, and infrastructure. It also integrates with Palo Alto Networks Panorama and firewall products, helping organizations maintain consistent control as technologies and requirements change.

How does Keyfactor support post-quantum readiness?

Keyfactor discovers certificates, keys, and algorithms to help organizations identify quantum-vulnerable cryptography and prioritize migration. Its PKI and lifecycle automation capabilities support testing, issuing, and replacing certificates as quantum-safe standards evolve.

Can I try Keyfactor before making a decision?

Yes. The Keyfactor Command Test Drive provides 30 days of hands-on access to certificate lifecycle management capabilities without requiring deployment in your own environment.
