Certificate Lifecycle Management Reading Time: 4 minutes

What’s New with CertSecure Manager?  

These days, cyber threats are growing more sophisticated, and managing digital certificates is becoming increasingly complex. Certificates expire faster, compliance requirements are stricter, and the stakes for maintaining a secure infrastructure have never been higher. That’s where our CertSecure Manager comes in. With its latest updates, we’ve built a solution that’s not just powerful but also intuitive, designed to make your job easier, whether you’re handling a handful of certificates or thousands. These new features are all about giving you the tools to simplify workflows, boost security, and stay ahead of the curve without the hassles. 

Get Full Network Visibility with Zero Blind Spots Using SSL Discovery and Analytics  

Managing SSL/TLS certificates across hybrid and multi-cloud environments can feel like solving a puzzle with missing pieces. CertSecure Manager’s automated discovery scans provide a comprehensive, real-time map of your certificate ecosystem. Identify expiring certificates, detect weak key sizes (e.g., RSA 1024-bit), and flag high-risk certificates like self-signed or wildcard SSLs, all from a single pane of glass. This level of visibility ensures you can proactively address vulnerabilities and maintain a secure environment in your organization.

Our Enhanced Reporting Has Made Compliance Effortless 

Staying compliant with regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI DSS doesn’t have to be a headache. CertSecure Manager’s advanced reporting tools deliver actionable insights through high-risk certificate reports, visually enriched inventories, and expiration trend analytics. These features go beyond raw data, offering context and prioritization to help you make informed decisions, streamline audits, and maintain compliance with minimal effort. 

CertSecure Template Management.

Simplified Inventory Management to Organize, Categorize, and Optimize 

Certificate sprawl is a common challenge in large-scale PKI deployments. CertSecure Manager introduces template categorization, enabling you to organize certificates by type, such as SSL/TLS, User, Certification Authority, Code Signing, and others. Additionally, the platform gives you an enhanced visibility of PKI posture for your individual Certification Authorities, as well as a unified global view. This structured approach simplifies inventory management, enhances searchability, and supports role-based access control (RBAC). It’s like having a finely tuned filing system for your certificates, ensuring every asset is accounted for and easily accessible.

Bulk Certificate Operations to Scale with Your Organization

Manual certificate renewals and migrations are error-prone and time-consuming, especially at scale. CertSecure Manager’s bulk CA switching and renewal capabilities streamline these processes, reducing manual effort and minimizing downtime. Whether you’re migrating to a new CA or transitioning to stronger cryptographic algorithms, these features ensure precision and efficiency, even across thousands of certificates.

Enhanced Agent Monitoring That Provides Centralized Control for Distributed PKI 

Managing agents across distributed environments can be a logistical nightmare. CertSecure Manager’s real-time agent monitoring provides centralized visibility and control, enabling remote operations like certificate issuance, renewal, and revocation. This eliminates the need for manual intervention, reduces administrative overhead, and ensures seamless integration with your existing workflows. 

Improved Dashboard Insights to Offer PKI Health at a Glance 

Navigating PKI data shouldn’t feel like deciphering a maze. CertSecure Manager’s updated dashboard consolidates critical metrics such as CA performance, cryptographic key strength matrices, and certificate expiration trends into a single, intuitive interface. This unified view helps you assess PKI health, identify bottlenecks, and plan strategic upgrades with confidence.

Highlighting Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) on the CertSecure Manager Dashboard

The new CertSecure Manager dashboard now features 12 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that offer a clear and concise overview of your certificate environment. These KPIs highlight the current state metrics of the active, expired, pending, and revoked certificates, as well as critical insights into high-risk certificates. This enhanced functionality helps you identify potential risks, reduce the scope of outages, and keep your organization’s certificate posture always under control.

New EJBCA Integration to Offer More Flexibility for Complex PKI Ecosystems

Not all PKI environments are created equal. CertSecure Manager’s new EJBCA integration ensures seamless certificate issuance, renewal, and revocation workflows, whether you’re working with legacy systems or modern, cloud-based PKI setups. This flexibility allows you to adapt to diverse environments without compromising on efficiency or security.

Enhanced Certificate Request and Enrollment for Enhanced Efficiency 

Delays in certificate issuance can disrupt critical operations. CertSecure Manager streamlines the process with automated CSR generation, direct certificate creation, and support for third-party CSR enrollment. These features eliminate bottlenecks, ensuring faster certificate deployment and minimizing operational downtime.
