Public Key Infrastructure Bypass refers to a security vulnerability or attack method that circumvents the established trust mechanisms of a Public Key Infrastructure. This infrastructure typically uses digital certificates and trusted authorities to verify the authenticity of public keys. A bypass allows an attacker to impersonate legitimate entities or compromise secure communications without proper cryptographic validation. It undermines digital identity verification.
Context
News concerning cybersecurity in the digital asset sector sometimes highlights instances or theoretical possibilities of Public Key Infrastructure Bypass, particularly in relation to securing transactions and identities on blockchain networks. Such vulnerabilities could pose significant risks to the integrity of digital signatures and the security of crypto wallets. Developers constantly work to fortify systems against these types of attacks.
