Provisioning Edition®
Overview
The Provisioning Edition of Venafi Encryption Director also provides full, end-to-end automation of encryption lifecycle management—from the CA all the way down to the target application or platform.
The Provisioning Edition automatically replaces expired certificates and out-of-date keys on the target platforms, replacing formerly manual processes including: key and CSR generation, CSR submission to CAs, approvals at the CA, issued certificate retrieval, certificate installation, operational validation, private key backup, and certificate renewal.
Managed certificates and keys can be provisioned to one or more systems, supporting full, automated management of complex, load-balanced environments. The Provisioning Edition of Director’s policy-based management enables granular control of all aspects of the provisioning process so that organizational policies can be enforced and tracked for compliance.
In addition, administrators can define policies and parameters for each application, ensuring consistent and efficient operations on time every time.
