Managing client certificates

This page describes how to manage client certificates.
The following types of certificates can be managed on Remote Service Manager, if Remote Service optional license is enabled.

  • Master client certificate:
    A certificate that is issued by Cybozu. This certificate contains license information and remote ID. The master client certificate can be used to access any of the registered products.
  • User-added client certificates:
    The certificates that are added by the system administrator. These certificates do not contain license information. A user-added client certificate can prevent users from accessing specified products or allow users to access a product during a specified time period. We recommend that you provide users with different certificates for different use cases.
    Example:
    • To temporary employees:
      Distribute a client certificate that allows users to access Product A and Product D for a period of one year.
    • To managers and above:
      Distribute a client certificate that allows users to access all products for a period of two years.
注意
  • Client certificate management is available only if Remote Service optional license is enabled.
    The status of certificates can be changed even if Remote Service optional license is not enabled.
