Abstract
Systems and methods for authenticating public key infrastructure certificate enrollment using certificate entitlement licenses. One example system includes a device manager including an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to receive a request for software for an electronic device including a unique electronic device identifier. The electronic processor is configured to determine, based on the request, whether the electronic device is entitled to participate in a certificate management service. The electronic processor is configured to, responsive to determining that the electronic device is entitled to participate in a certificate management service, transmit a certificate entitlement license request including the unique device identifier to a certificate entitlement license manager. The electronic processor is configured to receive, from the certificate entitlement license manager, a certificate entitlement license for the unique device identifier. The electronic processor is configured to deliver the certificate entitlement license based on the unique device identifier.
