DigiCert Unveils TLS Certificate Management for Partners

DigiCert, the secure sockets layer (SSL) certificate provider, is upgrading channel partners to DigiCert CertCentral Partner, a comprehensive transport layer security (TLS) certificate management solution for cloud and hosted environments.

CertCentral Partner offers an updated API that lets partners integrate key features into their own offerings for their customers. Using CertCentral, partners can support multiple subaccounts under a main account, simplifying management of customer accounts, ordering, payments and other processes, according to DigiCert.

Tobias Zatti, product manager at DigiCert, tells us CertCentral Partner gives his company’s partners “not just the most flexible and trusted products in the market, but also the fastest validation.” His role focuses entirely on “building products that help our partners succeed.”

“[CertCentral Partner includes] pre-validation, which allows for instant issuance if customers have multiple certificates for the same org,” he said. “It also gives partners strong automation tools and easy integration into their own systems, with full customization. CertCentral is also built on the world’s most modern and scalable architecture, and partners can rely on DigiCert for global and locally tailored solutions that other CAs cannot provide.”

Features allow partners to: access all certificate types from one place; take advantage of flexible ordering processes; and view and use a comprehensive library of documentation with API details, technical support and more.

“CertCentral Partner not only makes it easier to sell products, it also offers more products than all previous TLS managers combined — and all in one place,” Zatti said. “The robust API helps partners tailor their solutions to their customers, paired with full automation of the certificate lifecycle. That, combined with efficient processes and technical support for every part of the world, makes upselling and cross-selling much easier than before.”

“The streamlined API gives us access to more products than before,” said Marco Hoffmann, head of product management and domain registrar services at InterNetX. “With enhanced features like pre-validation and the detailed document library, DigiCert CertCentral Partner makes our daily tasks a lot easier.”
