History

The operational excellence of PKI Center has its roots in the early 1990s, developing a security key management infrastructure and operation to support our digital video systems that has well over 100 million customer premise devices securing video content still in use today.

The original mission of PKI Center, when it was part of General Instrument, was the security of the company’s video CPE products, which protected the content delivered by the deploying service providers. With the rise of the internet and the growing adoption of public key technologies, PKI Center leveraged its expertise and experience to provide PKI services to internal and external customers. Services have extended from factory to on-line certificate issuance and renewal, certificate authority hosting, on-line code signing (secure boot, platform and application including secure debug) supporting both custom and standards-based protocols.

Today, PKI Center has securely provisioned well over 6 billion sets of device identities. Devices that have relied on PKI Center services count in the hundreds of millions.
