HID Global, trusted identity solutions announced the HID HydrantID® Account Certificate Manager (ACM) solution that eliminates manual, risk-prone processes for tracking, installing, and renewing privately-issued as well as trusted Secure Socket Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) certificates.
The solution supports the industry’s broadest range of certificate automation requirements under a single annual subscription fee.
Secure cloud-based platform
“HydrantID ACM solves today’s difficult digital certificate lifecycle management problems by providing one secure and convenient cloud-based platform for organisational teams to easily access private Certificate Authority services managed by HydrantID on their behalf,” said Brad Jarvis, Senior Vice President & Managing Director, Identity & Access Management Business Area, with HID Global.
“The platform also automates routines such as certificate installation and renewal for both private managed Certificate Authorities and/or trusted SSL/TLS certificates that secure a large and diverse ecosystem of network devices and applications.”
Benefits with an annual subscription
HID HydrantID ACM software is unique in supporting both trusted SSL certificates and, for greater chain-of-trust control, hosted private Intermediate Certificate Authorities (ICAs)--all under a single annual subscription fee.
Unlike solutions that impose the additional cost, configuration, support, and point-of-failure risks of an intermediary “command and control” management platform, the HID HydrantID solution communicates directly with endpoints using a Connector model.

This makes it easier for organisations to add commercial certificate utilities such as Automatic Certificate Management Environment (ACME) clients to the HydrantID platform or embed them in enterprise platforms such as Microsoft Intune using native application programming interfaces (APIs).
