# Manage emCA

This section explains daily operations after installation. It covers creating root and issuing CAs, configuring OCSP and timestamping, and defining certificate profiles and lifecycles. It includes user and role management, keystore/HSM administration, external integrations and APIs, and protocol setup (ACME, EST, SCEP, CMP).

You will also find mail/notification setup, reporting, and key-recovery procedures. All actions are role-based, can require M-of-N approvals, and are fully audited.
