DigiCert, a pioneer in intelligent trust, announces growing adoption of the X9 Financial PKI as financial institutions modernise secure connections and prepare for approaching security requirements from The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). Since its introduction in 2025, the X9 Financial PKI has attracted more than 1,900 organisations deploying, evaluating, or testing the infrastructure.

Established and governed by the Accredited Standards Committee X9 (ASC X9) and operated by DigiCert, the ASC X9 Financial PKI provides a common framework for organisations to authenticate each other and exchange information securely. ASC X9 Financial PKI supports trusted network connections between institutions, partners, and service providers independently of browser root programs.
