Integration with Trusted Public Certificate Authorities

PAM360 facilitates end-to-end life cycle management of certificates issued by public certificate authorities. This functionality, powered through seamless API integration with third-party certificate authorities, allows administrators to request, acquire, consolidate, deploy, renew, and track the life cycles of certificates in a centralized fashion directly from the PAM360's web interface. PAM360 currently supports the complete life cycle management of certificates issued by the following certificate authorities: Let's Encrypt, GoDaddy, Thawte, Symantec, RapidSSL, Geotrust, Sectigo (formerly Comodo CA), DigiCert, GlobalSign.

Notes:

  • While PAM360 leverages the open APIs of Let's Encrypt and GoDaddy to establish a connection, the tie-in with rest of the certificate authorities is powered through an integration with The SSL Store™ , a platinum partner of the above mentioned certificate authorities.
  • You can augment PAM360 with additional ACME providers alongside established third-party certificate authorities like Let's Encrypt, Buypass Go SSL, and ZeroSSL, enabling automated certificate life cycle management.

The flow diagram below gives a quick overview of how the integration works and the necessary steps to acquire and manage the certificates issued by the public certificate authorities using PAM360.

  1. Request

    2. Raise requests for certificates from public certificate authorities using the built-in CSR generation tool.

  2. Forward

    3. Forward the request to the certificate authority for domain verification.

  3. Validate

    4. Complete the domain control validation procedure. Acquire and import the issued certificates to PAM360's certificate repository.

  4. Deploy

    5. Deploy the certificates to their corresponding end-servers.
