Certificate Lifecycle Management
Ident1ty automates the lifecycle management of your certificates and machine identities to eliminate the risks of interruption and compromise.
Why expired certificates are a silent security threat?
Expired certificates without alert
An undetected expiration is enough to cripple your infrastructure. Production incidents related to certificates cost millions.
Impossible manual management at scale
Thousands of TLS, SSL, SSH certificates managed in spreadsheets. No visibility, no traceability, permanent risk.
Ungoverned machine identities
SSH keys, tokens, application secrets, so many invisible attack vectors if no one inventories and controls them.
Never again a service outage from a forgotten certificate
Certificate-related incidents cost an average of 15 hours of downtime. IDENT1TY automates every step of the lifecycle.
Automatic inventory of all your certificates
Passive and active discovery of your entire PKI estate — on-premise, cloud or multi-cloud. No orphaned certificate.
Automated renewal without manual intervention
Renewal workflows triggered according to your business rules. Your teams only receive exceptions.
Multi-level proactive alerts
Notifications at 90, 30 and 7 days with configurable escalation. Your CISO no longer discovers expiries after the outage.
Continuously documented PKI compliance
ISO 27001, PCI-DSS and eIDAS compliance reports generated automatically for every audit or regulatory request.
What we do today
We help organisations regain full control of their digital certificate estate to reduce expiry and non-compliance risks.
Discovery · Inventory · Prioritisation- Automated discovery of certificates across servers, applications, network equipment, cloud environments and internal platforms
- Building of a centralised inventory including owner, usage, issuing authority and expiry date
- Identification of unknown, expired, misconfigured, self-signed or policy non-compliant certificates
- Risk prioritisation for critical, exposed or sensitive-service certificates
We help our clients automate certificate renewal to reduce manual operations and service interruptions.
ACME · Automation · Zero expiry- Implementation of automated processes for certificate request, validation, issuance, renewal and revocation
- Reduction of risks from unexpected expiries, human errors and operational dependencies
- Approval workflows tailored to criticality levels, application owners and business constraints
- Industrialisation of the certificate lifecycle for fluid, traceable and secure management
We help organisations design, secure, modernise and operate their PKI infrastructures, whether on-premise or hybrid.
PKI · CA · HSM · Governance- Analysis of existing PKI architecture, certification authorities, issuance policies and associated use cases
- Design or improvement of robust, resilient PKI architectures aligned with business and security needs
- Securing of certification authorities, keys, certificate templates and administration processes
- Support for operations, documentation and operational governance of the PKI infrastructure
We enable enterprises to better control machine identities used by applications, services, APIs, workloads and cloud environments.
Machine identity · DevOps · Cloud · IoT- Mapping of machine identities and associated certificates across the organisation's critical services
- Definition of governance rules: ownership, validity period, issuance policies, revocation and renewal
- Reduction of risks from unmanaged certificates, orphaned machine identities or undocumented usage
- Alignment of machine identity governance with IAM, PAM, DevOps, cloud and application security practices
We integrate certificate and machine identity management into DevOps pipelines to secure deployments without slowing teams down.
CI/CD · Pipelines · Containers · API- Integration of CLM/PKI solutions into CI/CD pipelines, DevOps platforms, secrets management tools and cloud environments
- Automation of certificate issuance and renewal for applications, APIs, microservices and containers
- Security controls embedded in build, deployment and release processes
- Reduction of friction between security, infrastructure and development through standardised, automated workflows
We help our clients demonstrate control of their certificates, machine identities and PKI infrastructure.
Audit · PCI-DSS · ISO 27001 · Reporting- Reports on certificate status, expiries, anomalies, issuing authorities and compliance gaps
- Management dashboards to track risks, renewals and remediation actions
- Alignment of CLM/PKI practices with internal policies, regulatory requirements and security standards
- Preparation of audit evidence for certificate management, keys, certification authorities and machine identities
Use cases
Certificate lifecycle industrialisation
Automated discovery, ACME automation and end to expiry incidents across a 5,000-certificate estate.
The insurer had experienced several major production incidents caused by undetected certificate expiries, one of which had caused a partial outage of the member portal for several hours.
The root cause analysis revealed no reliable inventory, certificates issued by different teams with no governance and no identified owner.
Another use case, another challenge.
Sovereign PKI for a French IoT manufacturer
Design and operation of a public key infrastructure dedicated to 200,000 devices over ten years.
Industrial manufacturer of long-life connected equipment whose initial PKI could no longer support growth or IEC 62443 compliance requirements.
The project aimed to rebuild a dedicated, sovereign PKI capable of serving the existing fleet and absorbing ten years of projected growth.
