Workflow

A workflow is a series of steps that must be completed before an action in CertSecure Manager is finished. Workflows add control and oversight to certificate operations, so that sensitive actions, such as issuing a certificate, are reviewed by the right people before they take effect.

This section describes the workflows available in CertSecure Manager, when each one starts, and how the users involved interact with it.

This section will include:

  1. Approval Workflow – requires one or more approvals before a certificate is issued from a certificate template that has an approval policy. Covers how administrators configure the policy, what happens when a user requests a certificate, and how PKI Admins approve or deny the request.
