SSL Certificates Reports And Renewals

 These is the step 5 of 6 Steps To Single-point Control SSL Certificate

STEP 5. Run Regular Reports On Available Units And Renewals.
Access to real-time information about enterprise-wide SSL Certificates helps system administrators better manage their time and resources. I

nstead of tracking certificates in a spreadsheet, summary and detail reports show the actual unit inventory across the enterprise by certificate status: all requests and certificates, pending, approved, rejected, valid, revoked, deactivated, expired, or expiring.

A renewal report with 90, 60, and 30 day alerts helps an administrator plan the quarterly budget for SSL Certificate renewals. Administrators may customize detailed certificate usage reports by organization or administrator. Audit logs record detailed history of all administrator actions related to every issued certificate.

Output: Better resource allocation and oversight.

STEP 6.Revoke and replace certificates as needed.
Consolidated inventory and management tools make it easier to revoke and replace certificates. If a private key is lost or compromise or if a server crashes and a certificate is deleted, the administrator can revoke the certificate and issue a replacement.

Output: More control over lost or missing certificates.
