    The maximum duration for which you can receive alerts is 30 days.
    Key Ceremony Admins Select two key ceremony admins.
    Note:
    • Only the default admins can add key ceremony admins.

    • SSO users cannot be key ceremony admins.
    Issued certificate status in CERT inventory Select any of the options:
    • Monitored: This is the default selection. Certificates that are auto-enrolled are added in the inventory as Monitored.

  4. Upload the CPS document.
    Table 2. Fields for CPS Upload section
    Field Description
    *Upload CPS A CPS (Certification Practice Statement) is a comprehensive document that defines the practices, procedures, and responsibilities of a Certificate Authority (CA) in issuing and managing digital certificates. It offers transparency into the CA's operations, detailing how certificates are requested, validated, issued, renewed, revoked, and how the CA ensures the security and integrity of these processes.

    The CPS is a critical element in PKI that establishes the trust framework governing the CA's activities. It is especially important for auditors, relying parties (those who verify certificates), and relying organizations to understand the CA’s operational procedures, security safeguards, and risk management strategies.

    Download the sample CPS document, make edits according to their organization policies, and then upload it.
    Note: Field marked with red asterisk (*) symbol are mandatory.
