Manage certificates across your ALB, CloudFront, and API Gateway services from Certinite's unified control plane.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) runs the backend systems for most modern enterprises, relying heavily on services like Application Load Balancers (ALB), Amazon CloudFront (CDN), and API Gateway to deliver applications globally. To encrypt these endpoints, developers utilize AWS Certificate Manager (ACM). However, managing and importing certificates manually, or setting up complex Lambda functions and EventBridge triggers to renew custom CA or Let's Encrypt certificates inside ACM can quickly lead to configuration mistakes and administrative overhead.
When managing a large fleet of AWS accounts or client applications, manually exporting private keys, handling certificate chains, and updating ACM resources can cause unintended human errors. A single forgotten certificate renewal or an incorrect IAM role permission can result in immediate downtime on your CloudFront distributions or ALBs, leading to service disruption.
Why AWS ACM SSL Automation with Certinite?
Certinite integrates directly with AWS ACM and AWS STS APIs using secure IAM Service Roles or cross-account access configurations. When a certificate is renewed (via Let's Encrypt or other CAs), our control plane securely imports the new certificate, its private key, and the complete certificate chain directly into your designated AWS region's ACM vault.
This integration is completely agentless and secure, requiring no local agent installations on your EC2 instances. By using granular IAM policies, Certinite only interacts with the specific ACM resources you authorize. AWS services (like CloudFront and ALB) automatically use the updated certificate version, ensuring a seamless and zero-downtime transition.
To reduce the operational burden on your DevOps teams, unify certificate management across hybrid clouds, and eliminate key exposure risks in your AWS environment, start using Certinite's automation today.
