A system executes a first testing process utilizing a sandbox sub-environment executing in an execution environment of a computing network to perform a first set of testing operations associated with a new certificate bundle that includes a new CA certificate. Responsive to successful testing via the sandbox sub-environment, the new certificate bundle is installed on a host executing in the execution environment. The system utilizes a testing service executing on the host to perform a second set of testing operations associated with the new certificate bundle. Responsive to successful testing via the testing service executing on the host, the new CA certificate is activated in the execution environment by issuing entity certificates to a set of nodes associated with the host for execution against the new CA certificate.

Orchestrating distribution of digital certificates to an execution environment of a computing network

A system utilizes a testing service executing on a first network entity executing in an execution environment of a virtual cloud network to perform a set of testing operations including receiving, at the first network entity, a first entity certificate issued based on the first CA certificate and utilizing the first testing service to authenticate the first entity certificate against the first CA certificate. While executing the set of testing operations, the second CA certificate is active in the execution environment. Responsive to determining that the set of testing operations are successful, the system activates the first CA certificate in the execution environment by transmitting to a second network entity, a second entity certificate for authentication against the first CA certificate that supersedes a third entity certificate issued to the second network entity for authentication against the second CA certificate.
