Case Study: University of Colorado at Boulder streamlines digital certificate management with Sectigo Certificate Manager

University of Colorado at Boulder manages 2,800+ certificates with Sectigo

The University of Colorado at Boulder, a major public research university, faced the challenge of managing thousands of digital certificates across its IT infrastructure. This large volume of certificates, essential for secure campus and wireless connections, required a streamlined system to handle expirations and new issuances efficiently without a centralized management console. To address this, the university turned to vendor Sectigo and its Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM) solution.

Sectigo implemented its SCM platform to automate and centralize the university's certificate lifecycle management. The solution provided a streamlined dashboard, configurable email alerts for expirations, and features like domain verification and same-day expiration reissuance. This allowed the IT staff to efficiently update, add, and delete thousands of certificates, ensuring no unexpected expirations and maintaining secure internet access for all faculty, students, and staff.
