Keyfactor

Keyfactor is a machine-identity and PKI (public key infrastructure) company that provides a control plane for digital trust — helping organizations discover, issue, automate, and govern cryptographic keys and certificates across enterprise, cloud, DevOps, and IoT environments. Its core products are Keyfactor Command (certificate lifecycle automation at scale), EJBCA Enterprise (modern, quantum-ready PKI and certificate authority), SignServer / Signum (code signing and verification), Cloud PKI-as-a-Service, and cryptographic discovery and inventory. Keyfactor Command and EJBCA expose REST APIs (self-hosted or cloud, per customer) with official Go, .NET, and CLI clients, and an experimental MCP server for agentic-AI integration. Keyfactor is trusted by roughly 40% of the Fortune 500 and is backed by Insight Partners.

Keyfactor is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Cybersecurity, PKI, Machine Identity, and Certificate Lifecycle.

Keyfactor’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, signup flow, CLI, authentication, and 14 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/keyfactor: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
