Configure certificate profiles and issuance policy

Certificate profiles determine what your organization is permitted to issue. For each profile:

  • Set the minimum key size and approved algorithms from the available FedRAMP options.

  • Set validity periods to the shortest duration that meets the business requirement.

  • Restrict subject and SAN fields to the values the use case requires.

  • Enable only the enrollment methods the use case requires.

  • Review profile changes through your organization's change-management process.

Unnecessary permissive profile settings increase the impact of a compromised issuance credential.
