IT SOLUTIONS PROVIDER WESELER RECHENZENTRUM, USES COMODO CERTIFICATE MANAGER FOR DIGITAL CERTIFICATE MANAGEMENT
Digital Certificates Help Keep Online Experiences Secure
With the explosion of the world wide web and Internet technology, collaboration and sharing of information both inside the walls of organizations and outside are being conducted at rapid rates. This leads to more and more opportunities for cyber theft, malware and corporate sabotage. In order to have these online transactions conducted securely, digital certificates are used to authenticate the identity of a website and encrypt information that is sent back and forth over the server. The numbers of certificates used by organizations vary, from a single digit number to tens of thousands of certificates, – all of these certificates need to be managed to keep track of when t the expiration and renewal dates. The Comodo Certificate Manager (CCM) is the optimum solution for the management and deployment of digital certificates.

Challenge:
Weseler Rechenzentrum had a competing certificate management product in TC-Trustcenter, a company that was acquired by Symantec. With the change in management of the product, WRZ felt they were not getting the technical and strategic support it needed to help manage its digital certificates and sought out a new solution to replace the now-owned Symantec technology. The new certificate management solution had to have ease of use, and be able to allow system administrators to select, manage and upgrade multiple certificates at multiple levels.
Solution:
Through a formal search process, WRZ selected the Comodo Certificate Manager (CCM) solution as its best of breed solution. For the past year, WRZ has been using Comodo CCM for code-signing, email, SSL and SSL wildcard certificates without failure. CCM allows WRZ to pre-purchase and have clear budgets on certificate costs, as well as a single location and view to manage all of its certificates from one location in one central view. With same day expiration reissuance, WRZ is able to efficiently manage the hundreds of certificates cleanly and efficiently.
