IDcentral & IDcentralEDGE – Extensible Trust Management Platform

The IDcentral and IDcentralEDGE platform is the core digital identity and authentication infrastructure behind Sixscape’s portfolio of products. The IDcentral on-prem and IDcentralEDGE hosted offering provides X.509 digital certificate services in the form of certificate request, retrieval, deployment and ongoing management including lifecycle management. The automation delivered ultimately shortens time to deployment and decreases total cost of ownership while ensuring you achieve your SLA and compliance obligations. Supporting a number of standard certificate management protocols including Sixscape’s own IRP, ensures that all use cases across all industries are addressed in any mixed end-point environment across Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android, IoT, network devices, machines, smartcards and tokens.

Next-gen Certificate Management Protocol

Existing certificate management protocols are limited and too heavyweight for providing full automation of certificate management. These include SCEP, CMP, ACME, EST and others (which while supported by IDcentral)  do not address authentication, which causes problems in many deployment scenarios. SCEP is limited in terms of what kinds of certificates it can work with. CMP is overly complex, and rarely implemented in its complete form.

IDcentral solves this issue, powered by Sixscape’s IRP (Identity Registration Protocol) which is a lightweight certificate management protocol which hides the complexity and simplifies request, retrieval, deployment and management of X.509 digital certificates as core infrastructure for Sixscape’s suite of products.

IRP truly is the next generation of certificate management protocols that addresses current and future requirements including that of lightweight and scalable deployment needed for IoT networks and 5G deployments with full Active Directory/LDAP integration.
