ACME

Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) is a protocol that facilitates the automation of certificate management as defined in RFC 8555. Integrated with VikingCloud’s Control Center, our ACME implementation eases the strain of managing your organizations certificates by streamlining the certificate process.

Benefits

Reduce Employee Workload

Managing an organization’s certificates can be an overwhelming and laborious job. Our ACME implementation relieves some of the burden by automating the verification, issuance, deployment, and revocation of certificates. Once your ACME account has been setup there is minimal action necessary to receive your certificates and keep them updated.

Increase Certificate Issuance speed

Receiving a trusted valid certificate can be a time-consuming process. Utilizing our ACME implementation, validations are completed ahead of requests to reduce the time it takes to receive your certificate. With an ACME account properly setup, a certificate can be issued in minutes.

Facilitates auto renewals

Expired certificates can cause network downtime, damage your brand, and cause non-compliance. Mitigate that risk with ACME to facilitate the automatic renewal of your certificates. You can select an ACME client that supports automatic renewals or generate your own scripts to automatically renew.

VikingCloud’s integration with ACME enables our users to request Domain Validated (DV), Organization Validation (OV), OV Wildcard, and Private Server certificates in an automated way. Our ACME solution is included with any purchase of VikingCloud’s Digital Certificates. Try it out today! Buy Now.
