Certificate Lifecycle End to End Management

Hi All,
Has anyone utilised and expanded on the OOTB functionality of Certificate Inventory and Management, to include a full end to end solution for certificates?
We are looking at streamlining our processes with automation across our certs as there are a number of manual steps currently required and we want to reduce the impact on our people.

I am looking at what out OOTB solution provides us (note: we haven't started using this yet) but our teams are keen to look at the options.
Ideally, we want to be able to cover the following using what is provided, and some 'smarts' around automation.

  • Request/Issuance 
  • Provisioning - Installation onto source systems
  • Discovery/Inventory – Scanning and locating all certificates
  • Monitoring – Keeping track of certificate expiry and reporting
  • Security – Key Management – Storage of secret credentials
  • Renewal/Revocation – Renew, Relace of certificates

If anyone has worked through this, I would be keen to know.

Regards

Simon

Hi Simran,
Yep, OOTB is all good and I am coming to grips with the solution.

We are really keen to know if anyone has expanded on this with customisation /extra development to specifically cover FULL end to end, by adding on automated revocation, replacement, removal or installation from/to target hosts.
Customised API, workflows etc?
