Abstract

Implementation(s) for acquiring new certificates on behalf of managed endpoints. For example, new certificates are acquired by: identifying a managed endpoint associated with a current certificate and corresponding current private key to be renewed; sending a first one or more messages to the managed endpoint to cause the managed endpoint to generate information needed to acquire a new certificate; providing the information to a certificate authority (CA) and receiving a corresponding new certificate from the CA on behalf of the managed endpoint; and sending one or more messages to the managed endpoint to replace the current certificate and current private key with the new certificate and a new private key, respectively.
