SUBJECT: PHILIPPINE NATIONAL PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURE (PNPKI)/DIGITAL SIGNATURE

The DepEd through the BHROD and ICTS, in partnership with DICT, has started processing applications for PNPKI. The PNPKI allows users of public networks like the internet to exchange private data securely. PKI is essentially a set of hardware, software, policies, personnel, and procedures needed to create, manage, distribute, use, store, and revoke digital certificates. 

At the outset, this initiative is expected to:

• • support business as usual without sacrificing the safety of signatories and employees routing physical documents:

  • foster trust between offices by ensuring secure and reliable online transactions;

  • successfully integrate the use of digital signatures in the process flow and vastly increase acceptance on the integrity of official documents within and outside the Department; and

  • prevent the transmission of COVID-19 on widely used official documents.
