We are moving from IKEv1 to IKEv2 on our hundreds of VPN tunnels. We are being told to use asymmetric PSK because it’s more secure than using PKI and private in-house certificates. I disagree but I’m not the expert in the area. Can anybody clarify how IKEv2 with PSK is more secure than IKEv2 with private certificates.
Thank you

Ikev2 is the next generation encrytion which is more better than ikev1. however the converencge of Ikev2 is more faster compare of ikev1. where ikev1 in phase one have 6 packets where ikev2 4 packet.
now coming to your question is PSK asymmetric is more secure than PKI. no PKI is more secure if you using a public certificate.
- Certificates are more secure than PSK in many ways (as long as private keys remain private

Hi Sheraz,
I somehow missed your response until now. My bad.
Thank you for responding and providing good detail. I was expecting there would be a technical reason, something concrete that would spell it out.
Anyway, Thanks again for your help
