In response to the complex challenges of modern IT architectures, we are pleased to introduce the FLEX Certificates – an innovative solution designed for organizations that demand the highest level of adaptability, scalability, and precision in security management.
FLEX Certificates are an innovative solution from DigiCert that enables the protection of single domains, subdomains, wildcard domains, and public IP addresses with a single SSL certificate. FLEX technology utilizes SAN (Subject Alternative Name), similar to standard multi-domain and multi-domain wildcard certificates, and likewise allows for up to 250 additional SANs. Unlike multi-domain or multi-domain wildcard certificates, FLEX has no limitations regarding the type of domains it can secure. While a multi-domain certificate can secure a single domain, subdomain, or IP address—but not wildcard domains—and a multi-domain wildcard can secure wildcard domains but not single domains/subdomains/public IPs, FLEX technology combines the best of both. This allows you to secure all options with just one certificate. Additionally, throughout the certificate’s validity period, you can freely add or remove SANs without needing to replace or repurchase the certificate.
Why choose the SSL FLEX Certificate?
Configuration flexibility: SSL FLEX certificates allow you to secure single domains as well as multiple domains and subdomains, including wildcard domains and public IP addresses. This makes it easy to tailor the certificate to the specific needs of your network infrastructure.
Scalability: The ability to add and manage SANs (Subject Alternative Names) during the certificate’s lifetime supports dynamic adaptation to evolving business requirements.
Cost optimization: Securing multiple resources with a single certificate reduces the cost associated with managing and maintaining multiple separate certificates.
Benefits of implementing SSL FLEX certificates:
Simplified management: Centralized certificate management across various assets simplifies administration and minimizes configuration errors.
Enhanced security: Ensuring a consistent level of protection across all resources secured by the FLEX SSL certificate strengthens data integrity and confidentiality.
This is an ideal solution for organizations seeking scalable solutions that eliminate security fragmentation across various platforms, domains, and infrastructure models (including hybrid cloud, DevOps, and edge computing). Furthermore, there is no need to purchase multiple certificates, making it a financially attractive option. Introducing SSL FLEX certificates into our offering is a response to the growing demand for flexible and efficient web resource protection.
