Certificates for Use in Microsoft Networks Full
Description :
In order to deploy and use Microsoft Certificate Services, you need to
understand the fundamentals of cryptography, digital signatures, encryption,
TLS, and S/MIME. It is also important to understand the concepts behind
public key infrastructure (PKI). This book teaches you all the required
background knowledge you need. Then it takes you deeper, step by step,
teaching you how to deploy Certificate Services and configure it to issue
various digital certificate types, complete with examples of using these
certificates with IIS, Outlook, and Windows.Microsoft-based networks 8212 onpremises,
hybrid, and cloud-based networks 8212 are used in companies of all
sizes. Within them, there are many applications of digital certificates that can
be created and managed by Microsoft Certificate Services. As security is more
important than ever, and cryptography and PKI are fundamental to so many of
these defenses, understanding Microsoft Certificate Services is becoming an
increasingly more desirable skill. Most IT workers don 8217 t realize the many
uses and purposes of Certificate Services, especially within a corporate or
government agency network, and how tightly integrated they are with the
Microsoft Windows Domain style of networks and Active Directory (onpremises
or cloud-based, including Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Services).
This book will teach you the gamut.You will appreciate the learning approach
presented in the book, beginning with the basics (cryptographic primitives such
as encryption and message digests), getting into combinations of primitives to
accomplish specific things (such as digital signatures and envelopes), and
then trying real-word systems based on digital certificates and PKI (such as
TLS, S/MIME secure email, cryptographic authentication, and more). The book
wraps it all up and teaches you how to deploy Certificate Services and issue
the various types of certificates, including how they are used. What You Will
LearnUnderstand basic cryptography (symmetric and asymmetric key
encryption, message digests, and digital signatures and envelopes)Know how
TLS, S/MIME, and cryptographic authentication workDiscover applications of
cryptography related to secure servers with TLS and cryptographic
(passwordless) authentication to online services including Windows and
secure emailGet to know the common types of digital certificates, how to
create and manage them, and examples of their use with IIS, Outlook, etc.

Who This Book Is ForMicrosoft system and network engineers, security
engineers, and CISOs. Readers should have familiarity with Windows Server
2019 (or more recent) and Active Directory.
