DigiCert ONE converges PKI and DNS

DigiCert, a global provider of digital trust, has announced the integration of UltraDNS into its flagship DigiCert ONE platform. UltraDNS is a solution from DigiCert acquisition Vercara that provides domain name systems (DNS) services, while DigiCert ONE, announced in 2020, is designed to provide a holistic approach to public key infrastructure (PKI) management.

The combination automates essential management processes between PKI and DNS, two foundational components of digital trust, to reduce outage risks and streamline operations.

According to DigiCert, DNS teams manually change records with every PKI update. But as trends like shortened certificate lifespans and quantum computing disrupt traditional change cycles, manual processes can no longer keep up. Frost and Sullivan advises organisations to automate manual processes and streamline trust solutions to keep digital interactions secure and flowing. DigiCert ONE addresses these challenges by enhancing cryptographic agility and automating key processes that keep digital trust infrastructure aligned.

"As organisations across APAC accelerate their digital transformation, they require solutions that simplify security operations while ensuring compliance and resilience in the quantum age," said James Cook, Group VP Sales, APJ, at DigiCert.

"By integrating UltraDNS into DigiCert ONE, we are eliminating complexity and enabling enterprises to automate certificate and DNS management at scale, allowing businesses to focus on innovation and growth rather than managing fragmented security infrastructures."

Advantages of combining PKI and DNS include:

Unified digital trust management

Centralised management, visibility and control over certificates and DNS, reducing security complexity and creating faster threat response.

Improved uptime

PKI-related outages are eliminated, and the availability of critical services ensured.

Automation for security and compliance

Automate renewals and DNS configurations to reduce human error and compliance risks.

Enhanced performance and security

Integrated PKI and DNS with distributed denial of service (DDoS) protection, advanced traffic routing, and application security for cyber resilience.

"Managing separate DNS and PKI solutions adds complexity, increases costs, and introduces potential points of failure,"  said Joern Lubadel, Global Head of Product Security at B. Braun, which has a significant presence in the Asia Pacific region.

"The move to a converged digital trust platform to mitigate security threats like DNS hijacking and DDoS attacks and streamline operations by automating the management of certificates is the sort of innovation that large enterprises need.

"The promise of a more resilient, efficient, and secure digital infrastructure will help companies focus on delivering exceptional customer experiences and get out of the business of onerous integration projects."

“When we were deciding which PKI solution to use, we sought to ‘future proof’ our operations by choosing a vendor that could deliver a comprehensive suite of tools to support our growth,” said Grace Young, CIO at Wattwatchers in Australia.

“We didn’t want to deal with multiple vendors for different parts of our operations like DNS and IoT*, which just adds complexity, costs, and potential points of failure. DigiCert's digital trust platform enabled us to automate certificate management, allowing our small team to deliver an efficient, resilient, and secure digital infrastructure for our enterprise customers. This allows us to prioritise customer value without being slowed down by complex configuration on the back end.”

"By integrating UltraDNS into the DigiCert ONE platform, DigiCert is addressing a critical challenge that enterprises face—managing fragmented security infrastructures that lead to inefficiencies, outages, and security vulnerabilities," said Ozgun Pelit, Senior Industry Analyst, at Frost & Sullivan.

“This unified approach enhances automation, resilience, and crypto agility, ensuring organisations can securely scale their operations while preparing for the post- quantum future. As certificate lifecycles shorten and cyberthreats grow more sophisticated, solutions that streamline digital trust management will become essential for enterprises navigating an increasingly complex security landscape."

Fortinet enhances FortiRecon to align with CTEM framework

Fortinet, the global cybersecurity provider driving the convergence of networking and security, has turned the FortiRecon platform into a comprehensive solution aligned with the continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) framework. The latest release introduces expanded internal attack surface monitoring, adversary-centric dark web intelligence, and security orchestration, all in a unified platform. These enhancements help organisations proactively identify and prioritise real-world exposures, validate risks like an attacker would, and accelerate response. “CISOs and security teams are overwhelmed by growing attack surfaces and an endless stream of unprioritised alerts,” said Nirav Shah, Senior VP of Products and Solutions at Fortinet. “With the latest enhancements to FortiRecon , we’re giving organisations an attacker’s eye view of their internal and external exposures, backed by AI-powered threat intelligence from FortiGuard Labs, real-world validation, and automated response...

AWS: AI adoption grows 20% in Singapore

Image
Amazon Web Services (AWS), an Amazon.com company, has found* that AI adoption continues to accelerate in Singapore. In the past year alone, 27,000 1 Singapore businesses adopted AI for the first time—equivalent to over three new adopters every hour. In sum, nearly 170,000 (48%) of businesses in Singapore have adopted AI 2 , up from approximately 143,000 (40%) a year ago. This represents a 20% year-over-year growth rate, AWS said. AI adoption is the strongest in the financial services industry (71%), followed by the technology sector ( software developers, data analytics firms, cloud service providers, and digital startups) at 70%, and healthcare at 63%. Among Singapore’s businesses that have adopted AI, 82% reported an increase in revenue, at an average increase of 19%, while 90% report significant productivity improvements. A large majority (85%) of those who have adopted AI say the technology is likely to increase their growth in the next year, and 89% expect an average of 17%...
