Private PKI Deployment Solution

Enterprise Private PKI Made Simple

WCAMAN provides organizations with a centralized web portal for issuing, approving, downloading, renewing, and revoking internal digital certificates. The solution is deployed securely inside the customer's own infrastructure and can integrate with an existing directory service.

Deployed inside your infrastructure. Your certificate authority, keys, users, and certificate data remain under your control.

Operational Problem

Internal Certificate Management Should Not Depend on Manual Processes

Many organizations still depend on manual certificate generation, spreadsheets, and disconnected approval processes. This creates operational risk and makes certificate ownership difficult to track.

Untracked self-signed certificates
Manual OpenSSL operations
Complicated certificate requests
No centralized approval process
Limited certificate visibility
Certificate expiry risks
Inconsistent certificate issuance
Difficult ownership tracking
Unclear revocation and audit process
Solution Workflow

A Centralized Portal for Your Internal Certificate Authority

WCAMAN gives users and administrators separate workflows while keeping certificate issuance under controlled administrative approval.

1

User sign-in

A user signs in using approved directory credentials.

2

CSR request

The user submits or generates a Certificate Signing Request.

3

Admin review

The request appears in the administrator dashboard for review.

4

Approval

The administrator approves or rejects the request.

5

Issuance

The internal CA issues the certificate after approval.

6

Download

The authorized user downloads and uses the certificate.

7

Lifecycle

Administrators monitor, renew, or revoke certificates when required.

Capabilities

Key Features

Centralized Administration

Manage users, certificate requests, issued certificates, renewals, and revocations from one portal.

Certificate Approval Workflow

Allow users to submit CSRs while administrators maintain control over certificate issuance.

Private Certificate Authority

Use an internal certificate authority to issue certificates for trusted organizational services and users.

LDAP Integration

Authenticate and manage users using an existing LDAP-compatible directory.

Active Directory Integration

Active Directory connectivity can be included as part of a customized customer deployment, depending on environment and project scope.

Built-In Directory Option

Provide an included LDAP directory for organizations that do not have an existing identity directory.

Certificate Lifecycle Management

Issue, approve, download, renew, revoke, and track internal certificates.

Audit Visibility

Maintain records of certificate and administrative actions for operational review.

Customer-Controlled Deployment

Deploy the solution inside the organization's VM, Linux server, or supported container environment.

Customized Branding and Configuration

Configure customer name, CA name, internal domain, portal URL, organization details, certificate settings, and deployment parameters.

Use Cases

Where WCAMAN Can Be Used

Service-specific integration depends on the deployment scope and customer environment.

Internal HTTPS websites Intranet portals IIS, Apache, and Nginx servers VPN authentication Wi-Fi and 802.1X projects Device certificates User certificates Development and testing environments Mutual TLS between internal applications Firewalls and network appliances Internal APIs Secure administrative portals
Deployment

Flexible Deployment Inside Your Infrastructure

The exact deployment method is confirmed during the technical assessment.

Virtual Machine Appliance

Deploy WCAMAN in a dedicated virtual machine hosted on VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox, VirtualBox, or another supported virtualization platform.

Existing Linux Infrastructure

Install and configure WCAMAN on a customer-provided supported Linux VM or physical server.

Containerized Deployment

Deploy the application through Docker or Docker Compose where container deployment is appropriate for the customer environment.

Identity Integration

Use Your Existing Directory or Deploy a Dedicated One

Existing Active Directory

Connect WCAMAN to the organization's Microsoft Active Directory environment through an approved service account and configured directory settings.

Existing LDAP Directory

Integrate with the customer's current LDAP-compatible identity directory.

Included LDAP Directory

Deploy a dedicated LDAP service together with WCAMAN when the customer does not already operate a directory service.

Directory integration, authentication rules, user synchronization, and access control are configured according to the customer's environment and security policies.

Service Health

Backend Service Health Checks

WCAMAN checks whether required backend services are reachable from the application VM, including LDAP directory services, step-ca certificate authority services, and configured supporting services. Online status confirms the portal can reach those service endpoints; offline status helps administrators identify service availability, network, or configuration issues.

FAQ

Common Questions

What is a Private PKI?

A Private PKI is an internal certificate authority system used to issue and manage trusted certificates for an organization's private services, users, devices, and applications.

Is WCAMAN hosted on the public internet?

No. WCAMAN is positioned as an internal deployment inside customer-controlled infrastructure.

Can WCAMAN be deployed inside our existing infrastructure?

Yes. It can be deployed inside a VM, supported Linux server, or suitable container environment depending on assessment.

Can it integrate with Active Directory?

Active Directory integration is available as a customizable deployment option based on the customer's directory structure and access policies.

Can we use an existing LDAP directory?

Yes. WCAMAN can integrate with an existing LDAP-compatible directory when the required service account, schema, and access rules are available.

What if our organization does not have LDAP or Active Directory?

A dedicated LDAP directory can be deployed together with WCAMAN for customers without an existing directory service.

Can the portal use our internal domain name?

Yes. The portal can be configured with an internal DNS name such as pki.company.local or another customer-approved name.

Can certificates be issued for internal websites and services?

Yes. Certificates can be issued for internal HTTPS websites, servers, devices, APIs, and selected services depending on the deployment scope.
