Introduces the purpose of Center web server certificates and outlines methods for managing them, including the use of default internal certificates and enterprise certificate solutions to ensure secure, trusted communication between Cyber Vision Center and client devices.
A center web server certificate is a digital security credential that
-
enables encrypted communication between the Cyber Vision Center and web browsers,
-
ensures data integrity and confidentiality during browser sessions, and
-
allows client devices to verify the Center’s identity before exchanging sensitive data.
Options for managing web server certificates
You can manage Center web server certificates in two ways:
-
Default internal certificate:
-
The system automatically generates a default internal (self-signed) certificate. To establish secure communication when using this certificate, you need to download it from the Center and install it on your laptop or client device. Adding this certificate to your device’s trusted certificate store secures your communications with the Center.
-
-
Enterprise certificate management:
-
Alternatively, you can configure the Center to use an enterprise certificate. The Center can use an enterprise certificate by uploading a P12 file, generating a certificate signing request (CSR) for your Certificate Authority (CA), or using the ACME protocol. Once in place, browsers will automatically trust the Center web interface. For more information, see the "Configure the Center" chapter in the Center Installation Guide.
