Configuration Protocol Support

emCA supports standard protocols for automated certificate enrolment and lifecycle operations.

  • ACME (Automatic Certificate Management Environment) Implements ACME APIs for automated enrolment and renewal. Integrates with ACME clients and enforces CA policy and auditing.

  • EST (Enrollment over Secure Transport) Provides enrolment over HTTPS with proof-of-possession. Supports initial enrollment and re-enrolment with client authentication.

  • CMP (Certificate Management Protocol) Supports issuance, renewal, revocation, and key update. Operates over standard transports and aligns with enterprise policy controls.

  • SCEP (Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol) Enables device enrollment in constrained or network-appliance environments. Supports request/renew flows suitable for MDMs, firewalls, and routers.
