Abstract
Described are automated systems and methods for employing certificate authority meta-resources to facilitate automatic renewal and/or rotation of certificates and/or certificate authorities in a PKI hierarchy. For example, embodiments of the present disclosure can provide creating a certificate authority meta-resource, which can maintain and monitor certain information to facilitate automatic renewal and rotation of certificates and/or certificate authorities in a PKI hierarchy. The certificate authority meta-resource can also keep track of the active certificate authorities and certificates to ensure that trust is maintained without manual configuration of the PKI hierarchy.
