RA
A software solution supporting registration authorities in issuing both qualified and non-qualified certificates — from creating a request to securely submitting it to the certificate authority and managing the full certificate lifecycle.
The registration authority
as a managed process
Enterprise RA acts as the central process module between the applicant, the registration authority, the certificate authority, external systems and CRL/OCSP services.
Benefits

What exactly does Enterprise RA solve?
It is a software solution supporting registration authorities in issuing both qualified and non-qualified certificates — a complete workflow platform from creating a request to securely submitting it to the certificate authority and managing the certificate lifecycle.
Where does the system sit in the architecture?
It acts as the central process module between the applicant/operator, the registration authority, the certificate authority, external systems (IS, ERP, DMS, IAM) and CRL/OCSP services.
Which user roles are supported?
RA operator (request processing), RA approver (review and approval), RA administrator (system and workflow configuration), auditor (review of audit records) and organizational approver.
How is auditability ensured?
The system keeps a complete audit trail of who did what, when and how, records state and data changes, allows audit reports to be generated, and audit records are electronically signed.
Can the workflow be adapted to our processes?
Yes. Every process is driven by a configurable workflow engine that can be set up to match your organization’s internal procedures.
Which certificate authority does the solution work with?
The solution is able to work with any certificate authority, including a connection to 4SIGNER Enterprise CA.
