Integrate with Red Hat Certificate System for robust safeguarding of certificate authority keys.
Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) is a robust, enterprise-grade Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) management solution that provides centralized, secure certificate issuance, revocation, and life cycle management. Designed to streamline and automate the administration of digital certificates, RHCS ensures secure, encrypted communication and authentication for web servers, virtual private networks, email, and other applications within an organization, helping to maintain the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive data.
This integration has the following features:
- Comprehensive certificate management: Centrally manage digital certificates throughout their life cycle, from issuance to revocation, ensuring your organization security and compliance requirements are met.
- Customizable certificate profiles: Create and deploy tailored certificate profiles to meet the specific needs and security policies of your organization, streamlining the certificate issuance process.
- Scalable Public Key Infrastructure (PKI): Build a secure and hierarchical PKI that supports the growth of your infrastructure, catering to the unique needs of your organization.
- Cross-platform support: Issue certificates to various devices and operating systems, including Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile platforms, ensuring seamless integration with your existing infrastructure.
- Secure communications: Safeguard your PKI and certificate management process with industry-standard encryption and authentication protocols, such as SSL/TLS, OCSP, and SCEP.
- Integration with Red Hat Technologies: Leverage seamless integration with Red Hat technologies, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Red Hat Directory Server, to enhance the security and functionality of your Red Hat-based environment.
Integrating with provides the following benefits:
- Enhanced security: Using a for cryptographic key storage reduces the risk of unauthorized key access and data compromise considerably.
- Optimized performance: We design our HSMs for high-speed cryptographic operations, which significantly boosts the encryption and decryption capabilities within the Protegrity platform.
- Compliance advantage: The integration meets stringent regulatory requirements for secure data and key management, such as FIPS or PCI-DSS.
- Operational resilience: The high availability and failover features in ensure a robust and reliable data protection environment.
- Centralized key management: serves as a centralized key management solution, simplifying administrative tasks while enhancing your overall security posture.
