Bryta Schulz, vice president of product marketing at Thales, talks about working with Finland on its e-passport project and helping the country deploy PKI. “The basis for this is it’s very important for them to collect accurate data and they decided to do this with PKI,” she said. “They set up a registry and issued digital certficiates via PKI to all their citizens and then they embedded them into the passports.”
