Building a 2-Tier, Offline-Root, Internal PKI with an IIS CDP on Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2

It’s long overdue, but more and more applications, systems, and services are finally requiring PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). Sadly, however, any Google or Bing search on the subject will point you to sources that are incomplete, contradictory, or flat-out wrong. There just isn’t a lot of clear and concise information for administrators who are learning and implementing this growingly important and necessary technology. No longer! This PDF is a soup to nuts demonstration of how to build a 2-tier, offline-root, internal PKI with an IIS CDP on MS Windows Server 2012 R2. We’ll look at encryption, keys, hashing, certificates, revocation lists, certification authorities (offline and online, root and subordinate, policy and issuing), digital signatures, and more. This PDF is a must-read for any modern-day infrastructure administrator.

    Attended Daniels session at Dog Food Conference/Columbus, Ohio.
    It was a very good presentation, I appreciated the work he put forward to create this documentation, staying after to answer questions, and the information was spot on what I need to accomplish to move from a 2003 to 2012 Certificate Services.
