The solution and its components

Companies and organizations themselves request and manage certificates with the CSM – all on a single platform. This reduces effort, costs and time, giving you full control over your certificate stocks at all times and ensuring the highest security standards. Access for authorized users to the web portal is secured with SSL/TLS and smartcard certificates.

Direct issuance of many different certificates following initial identity verification

Pre-verified organizational attributes, domains and applicant authorizations enable you to issue certificates immediately. The multifunctional certificates cover a wide range of applications: signing and encrypting e-mails (S/MIME), authenticating users and devices in networks, digitally signing or sealing documents, etc. You can add new organizations or domains to your account at any time.

Integration of the API into your digital workflow

By integrating the CSM API into your IT processes, you can fully automate the lifecycle of your user certificates and ensure an Active Directory connection. This enables you to use your existing IT infrastructure and provide all users, devices and servers with certificates at short notice, thus eliminating the need to manage your own PKI. Upon request, we will be happy to support you with offers tailored to your needs.

Precisely graded user authorization levels

With flexible rights and role models, administrators can determine which employees can request, release, renew or revoke certificates.

Several organizations in one customer account

Registration and administration of several companies or organizations in one account enables you to flexibly map the structure of a corporate group or different customers via one CSM account, thus providing a central certificate service.

Significant cost reduction

Our managed PKI service offers you steep volume discounts and at the same time eliminates the effort of setting up and managing your own PKI.
