About Oracle Public Key Infrastructure
Learn about Oracle public key infrastructure (PKI).
Oracle public key infrastructure (PKI) is used by Oracle Enterprise Security Manager, LDAP-enabled Oracle Enterprise Manager, Oracle's Secure Socket Layer (SSL) authentication, Oracle Database, and Oracle WebLogic Server.
Note:
-
Oracle Security Manager is installed only with Oracle Database Client.
-
Microsoft Windows does not support an SSL key length of less than 1024 bits any longer. Attempting to use these smaller key lengths with Oracle software on Windows returns an error.
