Disclosed are various embodiments for delegating authentication to certificate authorities. A connector service identifies a certificate request from a messenger service. The certificate request includes a credential identifier for a certificate authority. An authentication credential is retrieved using the credential identifier. A certificate request and the certificate authority authentication credential are transmitted to the certificate authority. A certificate is retrieved and provided as a response to the certificate request.

Delegated authentication to certificate authorities

Disclosed are various embodiments for delegating authentication to certificate authorities. A first request for a certificate is received from a client device. Then a certificate request can be created. The certificate request may include a credential identifier for a certificate authority. The credential identifier may uniquely identify an authentication credential to use to request the certificate from certificate authority. The certificate request can then be added to a message queue. Later, a second request from another computing device is received and the message stored in the message queue is provided in response. A certificate is then received from the other computing device and is provided to the client device in response to the first request.

Disclosed are approaches for distributing credentials using derived credentials, such as by relaying a simple certificate enrollment protocol (SCEP) payload. A computing device configures a device profile corresponding to a client device. The device profile can include a SCEP payload. The computing device later receives an override for the SCEP payload from a broker service. In response, the computing device creates a copy of the device profile that includes the override for the SCEP payload. The computing device then sends the copy of the device profile to the client device.
