overview
What is CEMA?
CEMA is an enterprise Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) platform that centralizes and automates digital certificate management across complex PKI environments. It connects multiple Certificate Authorities, supports automated certificate enrollment and lifecycle processes, and integrates certificate management with existing enterprise infrastructure through standard protocols and REST APIs.
CEMA provides a central management layer between your certificate consumers and Certificate Authorities, helping teams manage certificates, automate lifecycle operations and establish consistent governance without rebuilding their existing PKI.
Try CEMA and experience it in your own trial environment.
the problem
Certificates are everywhere. Managing them shouldn't be hard.
Digital certificates establish trust across applications, servers, users, devices, cloud services and connected infrastructure.
But as enterprise environments grow, certificate management becomes fragmented across Certificate Authorities, platforms, teams and processes.
use cases
What can you use CEMA for?
CEMA centralizes certificate lifecycle management across Certificate Authorities, applications, infrastructure and devices, helping enterprise teams automate certificate operations while maintaining control and governance.
What can you use CEMA for?
Gain centralized visibility into certificates, cryptographic assets and certificate activity across your enterprise PKI.
Centralized certificate inventory
Maintain a consolidated view of certificates across connected Certificate Authorities and environments.
Certificate monitoring & statistics
Track certificate status, usage and lifecycleinformation from a centralized interface.
Expiration & event notifications
Identify certificates approaching expirationand receive notifications about important certificate events.
Cryptographic visibility
Understand which certificates, keys and algorithms are in use to support crypto-agility initiatives.
Prepare for post-quantum cryptography
Build visibility into cryptographic assets and processes as your organization prepares for evolving algorithms and post-quantum cryptography.
Certificate Automation & Integration
Automate certificate lifecycle operations and connect CEMA with your existing PKI, applications, devices and enterprise systems.
Multi-CA certificate management
Manage certificates across internal and public Certificate Authorities through a unified interface.
Automated certificate issuance & renewal
Reduce manual operations by automating certificateenrollment, issuance and renewal.
REST API automation
Integrate certificate lifecycle operations directly into applications and enterprise workflows through CEMA's REST API.
Standard enrollment protocols
Automate certificate enrollment using supported protocols and technologies including ACME, SCEP/NDES, EST, Microsoft CES and LCEP.
Enterprise integrations
Connect certificate processes with directories, applications, infrastructure and enterprise workflows.
CipherMail integration
