Scott Meyerhoff reposted thisScott Meyerhoff reposted thisWe're proud to announce our investment in Keyfactor, the trust infrastructure platform enterprises rely on to secure machine identities and cryptography across their systems. As AI agents multiply, certificate lifespans shrink and the post-quantum deadline approaches, managing machine identity has moved from back-office plumbing to a board-level priority. Keyfactor is already supporting many of the world's largest banks, leading retailers and government agencies through this shift. We're excited to partner with Jordan Rackie and the entire Keyfactor team as they continue to build a category-defining company.

Scott Meyerhoff reposted thisScott Meyerhoff reposted thisThe future of Keyfactor has never looked brighter. Today, I’m incredibly proud to share that Keyfactor has signed a definitive agreement for a $1B+ strategic growth investment led by Summit Partners. This is a major milestone for Keyfactor, and a powerful validation of the company our team has built, the trust we have earned with customers and partners around the world, and the market opportunity ahead of us. Organizations are facing increasingly complex security challenges. Machine identities are exploding. Cryptographic risk is rising. AI is accelerating the scale and urgency of enterprise trust. And the post-quantum era is creating one of the most important security transitions of our time. Keyfactor is built for this moment. With this investment, we will be even better positioned to accelerate innovation, expand our global impact, strengthen our products and operations, and continue helping customers build trusted, resilient, and scalable digital infrastructure. For our customers, this is continuity and acceleration: the same leadership, the same mission, and an even stronger platform to support your success. For our partners, this creates even more opportunity to build, scale, and win together across machine identity, PKI, cryptography, and digital trust. And for our employees, this is a moment to be incredibly proud. This milestone reflects your hard work, your ambition, your execution, and your belief in what Keyfactor can become. With Insight Partners and Sixth Street continuing as active investors alongside Summit Partners, Keyfactor has a world-class investor group aligned around our mission, our market opportunity, and our long-term growth potential. Thank you to our team, customers, partners, and investors for believing in Keyfactor. We are just getting started. Read our latest press release: https://lnkd.in/e-GyhgK7

Scott Meyerhoff reposted thisScott Meyerhoff reposted thisRemember the Millennium Bug? Nothing was broken yet. But everyone realized the systems weren’t ready. The reason nothing collapsed? Preparation. Today we’re debating 47-day certificate lifecycles. More renewals. More pressure. More complexity. But that’s not the real issue. It’s the signal. Because cryptography lives everywhere: Infrastructure. Applications. Networks. And none of it is quantum-ready today. Whether quantum pressure hits in 2028, 2030, or 2035 around 2030, ecosystem and regulatory forces will make change unavoidable. The urgency isn’t fear. It’s scale. Thousands of applications. Hundreds or thousands of endpoints. Each one needs evaluation. Quantum readiness isn’t a switch. It’s a lifecycle: Inventory. Remediate. Automate. Monitor. Same logic everywhere crypto exists. Infrastructure is the most controllable layer today. That’s where 47-day certs and quantum readiness intersect. Same lifecycle just faster. Applications and networks? Multi-year transformation work. And if we get this wrong, systems won’t suddenly fail. They’ll keep running. But someone else owns them. That’s why inventory is always the starting point. Not hype. Not panic. Process. And that’s where Keyfactor supports bringing visibility and lifecycle control to the foundation layer. #CyberSecurity #PKI #PostQuantum #QuantumReadiness #MachineIdentity

Scott Meyerhoff reposted thisScott Meyerhoff reposted thisWhat happens when an AI can perfectly spoof your thermostat? That’s not science fiction. It’s the next frontier. At our alliance meetings, we explored agentic AI; autonomous programs that can impersonate real devices and present valid credentials. If they succeed, the trust fabric breaks. The solution is in the hardware: • Bind credentials to a secure element or TPM, not just a private key. • Strengthen enrollment protocols and vet the requester, not just the math. • Layer policies and auditability into PKI. Keyfactor is already innovating here: building PKI systems that verify legitimacy before issuing certs, and hosting keys with strict usage controls. That’s how we keep trust at scale. 🎥 Watch this video where Guillaume Crinon and I talk about AI impersonation, Keyfactor’s approach, and other topics, including post‑quantum cryptography, firmware signing, and TLS 1.3 readiness.

Scott Meyerhoff reposted thisScott Meyerhoff reposted thisThrilled to share that Keyfactor has received 'Great Place To Work Certification' across five different countries (Germany, Spain, Sweden, UK, USA). It's paramount to me that people enjoy the day-to-day and are energized about the work they do at Keyfactor. It's great to see that 93% of employees highlight a culture of well-being, appreciation, and growth. Life's too short not to enjoy the journey as much as any destination or outcome, and we are intentional about the things we can implement, support, and invest in that increase the likelihood of an amazing and thriving culture. https://lnkd.in/eM6gQRVp

Scott Meyerhoff reposted thisScott Meyerhoff reposted thisABI Research has named Keyfactor the #1 Enterprise PKI provider, reflecting years of innovation and commitment to helping organizations build digital trust at scale. Today, PKI matters more than ever. As AI-driven attacks evolve and machine identities multiply, traditional security models are breaking down. PKI continues to be the foundation for machine-to-machine trust, automation, and quantum-safe security across modern infrastructure. At Keyfactor, we’ve built PKI for what’s next: · Flexible deployment across cloud, hybrid, and edge environments · Crypto-agility to prepare for the post-quantum era · Automation to keep pace with machine-speed environments If you’re evaluating your PKI strategy or planning for quantum and AI-driven change, this report is worth a read: https://lnkd.in/gzSmmCzE #DigitalTrust #PKI #PQC #IdentityManagement #Cryptoagility
