CERT+

Digital Certificate Management and Automation

AppViewX CERT+ provides a one-stop solution for automated discovery, expiry alerting, renewal, provisioning and revoking of digital certificates across networks including servers, clients, firewalls and ADC devices. It arms Security Operations and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) teams with critical insights that can be used to avoid unwanted outages and other issues associated with non-compliant certificates. CERT+ integrates with major Certificate Authorities such as GeoTrust, Comodo, GoDaddy, DigiCert, Microsoft CA and Entrust.

Product Capabilities

Automated Discovery
and Inventory

Rogue, unknown and unmanaged certificates are an easy target for hackers. You need complete visibility into your infrastructure to control access to these certificates. CERT+ enables on-demand discovery of certificates from servers, clients, firewall and ADC devices and refreshes your inventory regularly with a midnight sync option.

Role-Based
Access Control

Weak certificates and unregulated access can compromise the security of your application infrastructure. With CERT+, administer policies, such as recommended cryptographic techniques, CAs, and workflows, to eliminate rogue certificates. Delegate access and apply granular visibility to individual certificates or certificate groups to enable efficient provisioning.

Automated Certificate
Enrollment

Each step in the certificate enrollment process introduces the possibility for costly human errors. With CERT+’s automation feature, you can use a single console to order certificates from any supported CA or from your own internal CA, push issued certificates to multiple devices, renew existing certificates, revoke certificates and delete unused certificates all with ease and accuracy.

FIPS Compliance

Compliance builds trust. Trust builds a larger customer base. With CERT+, enforce policies and ensure encryption compliance with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS-140). The safety of your private keys is ensured using our AES-256 encrypted database or even better, a FIPS 140-2 certified HSM.

Holistic View
of Certificates

Sifting through the thousands of certificates in your inventory can be cumbersome. With our holistic view, CERT+ graphically represents important certificate information like the certificate’s chain of trust and its associated devices. You can also perform necessary life cycle management processes like issuing, renewing and revoking multiple certificates without having to leave the holistic view.

Certificate Expiry
Alerting and Reporting

Unplanned system outages are both fiscally costly and damaging to a brand’s reputation. CERT+ provides periodic reports on non-compliant certificates, expired but unrevoked certificates, and soon to expire certificates to proactively address vulnerabilities. You can choose to receive these alerts/reports through emails or SNMP traps.
