Adobe AATL certificates for individuals and organizations
Support for issuance of Adobe RSA or ECDSA certificates for individuals and organizations that chain up to root CAs recognized by the Adobe Approved Trust List (AATL) and used to digitally sign documents that are trusted by Adobe products (for example, PDF documents). The certificates get issued from your CertCentral account via a CertCentral CA connector configured in Trust Lifecycle Manager.
Adobe Individual in Organization (via CertCentral)
: Linked to User seats, this template enables end-users to digitally sign Adobe PDFs locally. Profiles created from this template will be automatically configured to use the DigiCert Trust Assistant enrollment method, which will enforce the use of a hardware token for the creation and storage of keys. Compliance with the DigiCert Master Services Agreement and Adobe’s requirements is the customer’s responsibility.Adobe Organization (via CertCentral)
: Linked to Organization seats, this template allows an organization to sign PDFs with a branded certificate. The private key must be securely hosted on a hardware security module (HSM) and used for all document signing.
The following table shows the new base templates used to create certificate profiles for issuing the two types of Adobe AATL certificates, along with the supported enrollment and authentication methods for each template, the corresponding certificate product that must be enabled in your CertCentral account, and the root/intermediate CAs for each CertCentral region.
Template | Seat type | Enrollment method | Authentication methods | CertCentral product type | Trust anchors |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DigiCert Trust Assistant |
| Document Signing for Business - Employee | CertCentral Europe Root CA: CertCentral USA Root CA: Intermediate CA: | |
| CSR |
| Document Signing for Business - Group | ||
REST API |
|
Important
Both Adobe certificate templates are "limited" and must be explicitly assigned to your Trust Lifecycle Manager account. If you do not see the templates listed on the Policies > Base templates page, contact your DigiCert account representative or system administrator to assign them and inform you of your Adobe obligations. These obligations include verifying the identity of end-users using a face-to-face process, and keeping evidence of that process, before allowing them to enroll for an Adobe certificate. See Section 27 of DigiCert Certificate Terms of Use for more details.
To issue Adobe certificates, your CertCentral account must be enabled with the corresponding product type (as shown in the above table) and certificate units.

The CMDB integration features require minimum version 1.3.0 of the ServiceNow app for Trust Lifecycle Manager.
For more information, see the ServiceNow integration guide.
Self-service portal (SAML-authenticated)
The self-service portal now allows users to perform lifecycle management actions on certificates they own after authenticating against their SAML identity provider (IdP). Authentication relies on a unique email address being sent by the SAML IdP to DigiCert’s SAML service provider and used to search for certificates that contain that email address in the SDN:email
or SAN:rfc822Name
fields.
Account administrators can configure the lifecycle actions that end users are allowed to perform on their certificates. Depending on the type of certificate, available actions may include:
Revoke
Suspend/Resume
Recover
To be visible, certificates must be issued from a profile with the self-service portal option enabled and one of the following enrollment methods:
Browser PKCS12
CMP
CSR
DigiCert Trust Assistant
EST
Microsoft Autoenrollment
REST API
SCEP
In addition, authenticated users can enroll their own certificates and pick up an approved certificate from the self-service portal for web-based profiles that have the self-service portal feature enabled and one of the following authentication methods:
Enrollment code
Manual approval
SAML IdP
Authorized administrators with the SSP manager
role can configure the self-service portal from the Trust Lifecycle Manager Settings menu, where they can enable/disable either the open or authenticated self-service portal, manage the allowed actions for the authenticated portal, and get the portal URLs and QR codes to share with end users.
Note
A future release will include a "Renewal" action and the ability to manage Discovery/Imported certificates from the self-service portal.
API endpoint for profile creation
New POST profile
REST API endpoint allows for creation of certificate profiles from the "Generic" base templates and configured for the REST API
enrollment method and 3rd Party app
authentication method.

Trust Lifecycle Manager integrates with cert-manager over ACME to issue private certificates from DigiCert® CA Manager for automated service mesh configuration via Istio.
To support this integration, administrators can create a certificate profile from the new CA Manager Private mTLS Certificate
base template. A sample configuration file and instructions for enabling the integration are available from the Integrations > Connectors > Add connector page under the Infrastructure automation category.
For more information, see the Istio connector guide.
Policy notifications for discovered certificates
As part of this release, we introduced the ability for administrators to define notification policies for discovered certificates. Any newly discovered certificates matching the user-defined criteria will trigger a notification. To select certificates to notify about, administrators can apply boolean operators against a list of options including the:
Subject DN
Common name/SAN
CA vendor
Security rating
Signature algorithm (e.g SHA256WITHRSA)
Key size
Cipher
Tags
Issuing CA
Administrators can clone
the default discovery notification template to define specific criteria, recipients, and email content. They also have an option to combine multiple events in one email. This allows users to configure multiple polices to identify exceptions. The above criteria are also extended to existing expiry notices for discovered certificates from the following notification templates:
Discovered certificate
(New)Discovered certificate expiring
Discovered certificate expired
Enhancements
Duplicate certificates option for Public S/MIME Secure Email (via CertCentral) template
Certificate profiles created from the Public S/MIME Secure Email (via CertCentral)
base template now allow configuration of the “Allow duplicate certificates” option. Previously, the option was set to “Yes” and could not be disabled.
IAN extension for web-based enrollment flows
From this release, we extend support for the Issuer Alternative Name (IAN) extension to the following web-based enrollment flows:
Browser PKCS12
CSR
DigiCert Trust Assistant
Note
The IAN extension is only supported by the Generic User Certificate
base template. Previously, it was only enabled when using the REST API
enrollment method with 3rd Party app
authentication.
Self-service portal enhancements
Added the ability to enable or disable the self-service portal (SSP) option from the main Profiles table, instead of having to edit each profile individually.
Added the ability to view/copy the self-service portal URL from the profile details page (Advanced settings > Self-service portal section) when the feature is enabled.
Added more detailed instructions to the self-service portal page to help end users search for and download their certificates.
SAML service provider enhancements
From this release, we support the following SAML service provider (SP) enhancements for profiles configured with the SAML IdP
authentication method and the new SAML-authenticated self-service portal.
Signing options
Two new SAML service provider signing options are displayed for profiles configured with the SAML IdP
authentication method:
Sign SAML assertion
Sign SAML response
The default configuration has both options checked, but they can be unchecked. However, not every SAML IdP vendor supports receiving unsigned SAML assertions and responses from service providers. If in doubt, check with your SAML IdP vendor before configuring these options.
Generate new SAML Service Provider certificate
A new Generate new SAML SP certificate button is displayed on the profile details SAML configuration options section. This button can be used at any time to generate a new DigiCert SAML service provider (SP) certificate and view its expiration period. When selected, a warning message prompts the user for confirmation before revoking the current SP certificate and issuing a new one.
For profiles configured with the SAML IdP
authentication methods, the profile will go into Action needed
state when the SAML SP certificate expires. To restore the profile to active status, use the new Generate new SAML SP certificate function to get a new certificate.
Warning
After generating a new SAML SP certificate, the profile will stop authenticating requests against your SAML identity provider (IdP) until you reconfigure your IdP settings with the new SAML SP certificate. It will also stop working if the SAML SP certificate expires without your due attention.
Custom certificate report enhancements
Enhanced the custom certificate CSV reports with three new fields, under two of the sections:
Other extensions
Security Identifier
Issuer Alternative Name
(containing a directory name value)
Subject Alternative Name (SAN) extension
Directory name
Profile wizard - custom extensions
Enhanced the Custom extensions section in the profile wizard (used by the "Generic" templates) to deliver a better user experience and only show the details of the custom extension section if a user selects the new Add custom extensions button.
Fixes

Profile wizard - certificate preview
Ability to preview the content of a certificate as you work though the profile wizard steps, including the entire CA hierarchy that will be used to sign the certificate, for certificate profiles that use issuing CAs hosted in the DigiCert® CA Manager application.
EST authentication
New EST authentication options available for all three "Generic" certificate templates (Generic Device
, Generic Private Server
, and Generic User
):
Global enrollment code
Extended the enrollment code authentication method to optionally allow the configuration of a global enrollment code that can be used to authenticate all incoming EST client requests.
Certificate-based authentication
Added support for certificate-based client authentication via a new authentication method called TLS Certificate Auth
. This option requires that you first upload the certificates of CAs trusted to issue client authentication certificates, via the Account > Root CAs page. To authenticate, EST clients must present a certificate signed by one of these trusted CAs.
For more information, see Configure and test EST.
DigiCert Trust Assistant release v1.1.5
New DigiCert Trust Assistant release with the following updates.
Client enhancements:
Import/Export of PKCS#12 / PKCS#7 / GLCK certificate with CA(s) on Windows CAPI will import CA chain certificates to respective trusted root and intermediate CA stores in CAPI with various configurable options (Windows only).
Functionality to rerun the post-processing scripts associated with a certificate/profile in case the scripts fail to execute at the time of certificate enrollment/renewal.
Added new system-level notifications (via a notification message within the client) to inform users about failed post-processing scripts, with enhanced error messaging about the script failures in the DigiCert Trust Assistant user interface and logs.
Enhanced software auto update flow to reduce the number of alerts in case of network communication failures.
Outlook post-processing script — multiple accounts:
Enhanced the Outlook system post-processing script to support Outlook instances with more than one configured email account, based on email matching from the certificate SubjectDN:email and/or SAN rfc822Name fields.
Mixed key types for CA and end-entity certificates:
DigiCert Trust Assistant can now handle certificate issuance/renewal flows with the below CA/end-entity key type combinations, for DigiCert Trust Assistant profiles configured with an:
RSA CA and end-entity certificates with key types of RSA, RSAPSS or ECDSA.
ECDSA CA and end-entity certificates with key types of RSA or ECDSA.
Non-supported browsers:
If a DigiCert Trust Assistant-based enrollment or renewal is attempted on a browser that is not officially supported by DigiCert, a warning message will be shown on the enrollment/renewal page. The flow will not be blocked, just a warning message.
Certificate delivery format:
When configuring a DigiCert Trust Assistant non-escrow profile from any of the Public S/MIME templates, the default certificate delivery format will now be PKCS#7.
For profiles configured with delivery of the certificate with the CA chain, DigiCert Trust Assistant will automatically install the root/intermediate CA certificates into the respective Windows stores in CAPI.
Fixes
Public S/MIME profile creation
Resolved issue with not being able to create certificate profiles from the Public S/MIME templates.

Sensor release v3.9.0
New DigiCert sensor release with the following updates:
Refactored sensor-to-Trust Lifecycle Manager communication from SOAP to REST.
Stability fixes.
Enhancements
Enhanced automation actions
Optimized certificate lifecycle workflow actions on the Inventory page:
Switch
action allows switching a deployed certificate to any supported CA (previously "Switch to DigiCert").Request a certificate
action allows users to issue a new certificate from the same CA.Renew/Reissue
actions remain unchanged for CAs that support them.
Streamlined SAML web enrollment flow
Streamlined the SAML-based web enrollment flows to bypass the “Create enrollment” step if no user input is required and the “Cloud Key Escrow” option is disabled in the profile. This streamlined SAML enrollment flow only presents a single page ("Install certificate").
If the “Cloud Key Escrow” option is enabled in the profile (e.g. for S/MIME use-cases) we will continue to show an intermediate page with a warning to the user alerting about the private key being escrowed in the cloud, hence not bypassing this page. We renamed this page from "Create enrollment" to "Enrollment request" and the button from "Create" to "Submit".
"Enrollment status change" email template for enrollment code flows
Profiles configured with the Enrollment code
authentication method now have access to an additional email template that can be enabled in the Email configuration and notifications section of the profile to notify end users when their enrollment status changes from "created" to "rejected", "expired", or "redeemed". We renamed this notification type from "Enrollment status is either rejected or expired" to Enrollment status change (rejected, expired, redeemed).
Fixes
Inventory page issue due to deleted profiles
Resolved issue with the Inventory page not loading properly when encountering certificate profiles that had been deleted.
Certificate delivery format for Public S/MIME (via CertCentral) API requests
Resolved issue with incorrect certificate delivery format for profiles configured from the Public S/MIME Secure Email (via CertCentral)
template using the "REST API" enrollment method and with the “Cloud Key Escrow” option disabled (i.e. non-escrow).
SCEP URL with additional "/" character
Resolved issue with the SCEP service no longer accepting SCEP requests containing a “/
” character at the end of the "pkiclient.exe" resource inside the URL (e.g. "https://one.digicert.com/mpki/api/v1/scep/<profile-guid>/cgi-bin/pkiclient.exe/
?operation=GetCACert").
Sensor list not being sent to agent
Resolved issue with sensor list not getting updated to agents when a sensor is added or removed. This fix ensures that proxied agents have the latest sensor list available for failover scenarios.
Unable to change "start now" scan to scheduled
Resolved issue with being unable to edit a "start now" network scan to use the "schedule for later" option instead.

endpoint and the DigiCert Import Tool (available from your DigiCert representative upon request) to support uploading end-entity escrowed certificates (PKCS#12 files with their passwords) into a specified business unit, with or without their issuing CA being previously loaded and configured into your account.
Uploaded certificates get automatically bound to one of the below seat types based on whether the issuing CA is available in your account or not:
Imported seats: For certificates (whether escrowed or not) with their associated issuing CAs available in your account. Authorized administrators can manage lifecycle operations for these certificates in Trust Lifecycle Manager (for example, revoke, suspend/resume, or recover). Available management actions depend on the type of certificate uploaded.
Discovery seats: For certificates without their associated issuing CAs available in you account. Authorized administrators with the appropriate Key Recovery role can download and recover this type of certificate in Trust Lifecycle Manager.
For more information, see Import externally issued certificates using the API.

If selected, the request is passed on to CertCentral and the CA there will issue a duplicate if a matching certificate is found. If no match is found, a new order gets created instead.
This feature must be enabled on a per-account basis and is available for certificate profiles configured with the following enrollment methods:
Admin web request
DigiCert agent
DigiCert sensor
3rd-party ACME client
Notice
To issue a duplicate certificate from an existing CertCentral order, make sure all these conditions are met:
