Sectigo today announced the general availability of Sectigo Orchestration Gateway (SOG), the innovative automation layer within its award-winning Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) platform, Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM). With shorter certificate lifespans and the growth of AI-driven machine identity workloads increasing certificate volumes, SOG is built to simplify certificate operations at scale. IT teams can now automate certificate discovery, issuance, renewal, and deployment across environments from a single platform, without relying on manual workflows, separate agents, or fragmented connectors.

IT teams are under growing pressure when it comes to digital trust. By 2029, public SSL/TLS certificate lifespans will shrink to 47 days, requiring near-monthly renewals and significantly increasing the number of certificate-related tasks teams must manage. The hidden risk of unmanaged certificates can lead to outages, missed renewals, and operational disruption. SOG helps teams stay ahead by bringing end-to-end certificate automation into one lightweight install that ultimately reduces manual work, keeps every endpoint trusted and helps teams prepare for a quantum future.

What Does Sectigo Orchestration Gateway Do?

“Shorter certificate lifespans and sprawling, multi-vendor infrastructure have made old approaches to certificate automation harder to scale,” said Henry Lam, field CTO at Sectigo. “With Sectigo Orchestration Gateway, we’re bringing full automation to certificate operations, giving customers one gateway that coordinates certificate workflows across every endpoint on their network. It’s a direct expression of Simplicity at Scale: less infrastructure to run, more certificates under control, faster time to value, and a platform built to keep pace with what’s next.”

Research shows that 95% of organizations remain at least partially dependent on manual certificate workflows. Where automation does exist, it is often with a patchwork of fragmented connectors and siloed tools. SOG enables a single, automated certificate workflow that runs across every server, cloud, and edge platform in an organization’s environment under centralized policy. Instead of managing separate virtual machines, high-availability setups, and maintenance cycles for each integration, teams can now automate certificate workflows across their technology stack. The result is simpler operations and a stronger foundation for crypto agility as post-quantum standards evolve.

What Can Enterprises Do with Sectigo Orchestration Gateway?

SOG introduces a range of capabilities designed to give enterprises one consistent way to automate certificate operations at scale:

  • End-to-end automation at scale: Automate certificate discovery, issuance, renewal, and deployment in one continuous workflow inside SCM.

  • One gateway, many endpoints: Extend automation across servers, load balancers, CDNs, WAFs, and access systems from a single lightweight install.

  • Support for crypto agility: Prepare for what comes next with support for crypto agility, evolving standards, algorithm transitions, and post-quantum readiness.

  • Expanded platform coverage: Native support for IIS, Apache HTTP Server, Apache Tomcat, F5, NGINX, Citrix, Cloudflare WAF, Imperva WAF, and many more.

  • Secure, credential-aware operations: Direct integration with CyberArk, Delinea, HashiCorp, and BeyondTrust retrieves credentials just-in-time, avoiding local or shared credential storage.

  • Improved visibility and control: Use network discovery and central policy to help teams keep certificate operations consistent across complex environments.

SOG further delivers on Simplicity at Scale, Sectigo’s commitment to keeping certificate management simple as certificate volumes grow and enterprise environments become more complex. Book your SOG demo today by visiting us HERE.
