Title: Public Key Infrastructure Certificates
Ownership: Customer, Microsoft
Description: The organization issues public key certificates under an Public Key Infrastructure Operational Security Standard or obtains public key certificates from an approved service provider.
Requirements: The Online Services Key Management Standard applies to the operation of all Microsoft’s online services’ systems residing within the Azure environment utilizing cryptographic mechanisms for securing data or systems. This standard applies to all environments managed by Azure, including labs, production, and preproduction. Microsoft’s corporate Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) has been established to provide a variety of digital certificate services to support operations for Azure and for the Microsoft Corporation. Microsoft corporate PKI functions as the Certificate Authority (CA) and Registration Authority (RA) and provides directory services to manage keys and certificates. Internal Azure traffic does not require the use of digital certificates and also includes the use of self-signed certificates. The use of self-signed certificates applies exclusively to internal use within Azure.

NIS2 DP._Data_Protection_8 NIS2_DP._Data_Protection_8 NIS2_DP._Data_Protection_8 DP. Data Protection Policies and procedures regarding the use of cryptography and, where appropriate, encryption n/a In order to safeguard the security of public electronic communications networks and publicly available electronic communications services, the use of encryption technologies, in particular end-to-end encryption as well as data-centric security concepts, such as cartography, segmentation, tagging, access policy and access management, and automated access decisions, should be promoted. Where necessary, the use of encryption, in particular end-to-end encryption should be mandatory for providers of public electronic communications networks or of publicly available electronic communications services in accordance with the principles of security and privacy by default and by design for the purposes of this Directive. The use of end-to-end encryption should be reconciled with the Member States’ powers to ensure the protection of their essential security interests and public security, and to allow for the prevention, investigation, detection and prosecution of criminal offences in accordance with Union law. However, this should not weaken end-to-end encryption, which is a critical technology for the effective protection of data and privacy and the security of communications. 32
