PKI architecture and operations
Design, run or rescue internal certificate authorities, from CP/CPS and HSM integration to runbooks your team can actually follow.
Your certificates are about to renew eight times as often.
Ambord Tech is a Zürich consultancy for PKI, certificate automation and DevSecOps. We help banks, insurers and market infrastructure get certificate operations ready for shorter lifetimes, stricter auditors and post-quantum cryptography.

Three ways we help
Hands-on engineering and advice, from the first inventory to a PKI your operations team runs with confidence.
Certificate automation and crypto-agility
Find every certificate and key you depend on, automate renewal for 100- and 47-day lifetimes, and build a post-quantum roadmap your supervisor will accept.
Kubernetes and DevSecOps security
cert-manager, GitOps and pipeline security on Kubernetes and OpenShift, so security is part of how you ship rather than a gate at the end.
Senior expertise, directly
You work with the engineer who does the work, from the first call to handover. No account managers, no juniors learning on your project.

We build OpenPKI
Open-core certificate governance for Kubernetes: policy, approvals and a tamper-evident audit trail on top of the cert-manager you already run. Ambord Tech provides implementation, support and the commercial tier.
