PKI Training and Resources
Any recommendations on advanced PKI Training? I've taken the "Designing and Managing a Microsoft Windows Public Key Infrastructure" course however it doesn't go into great detail on the many intricacies of PKI (ie. certificate policies, custom application policies, CTL's, etc.). Any suggestion are appreciated.

1. I would advice to read Brian's book: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/book.aspx?ID=9549&locale=en-us this is mandatory for any Windows PKI administrator. 2. You may want to revisit Windows PKI team's blog at http://blogs.technet.com/b/pki and Directory Services support blog: http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds 3. Take a look for this article: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/windows-pki-documentation-reference-and-library.aspx 4. since you have at least basic background this book will extend your knowledge. Also don't forget to check for official whitepapers and RFCs. For example RFC5280 is the only document (as far as I know) that fully describes how policy constraints works. 5. For advanced details you should refer to MS communication protocols like MS-CASO, MS-CAESO, MS-CSRA, MS-WCCE, MS-XCEP, MS-WSTEP, MS-OCSP, MS-OCSPA and so on. Even if these documents are needed for developers there are many Windows-scpecific implementation topics. However this will require advanced knowledge about Windows PKI. This is not a definitive way, but just how I learned (and still learning) PKI.My weblog: http://en-us.sysadmins.lv PowerShell PKI Module: http://pspki.codeplex.com
