AWS Private CA now supports SCEP for mobile devices

AWS Private Certificate Authority (AWS Private CA) launches General Availability of the Connector for SCEP, which lets you use a managed and secure cloud certificate authority (CA) to enroll mobile devices securely and at scale. Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) is a protocol widely adopted by mobile device management (MDM) solutions to obtain digital identity certificates from a CA and enroll corporate-issued and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) mobile devices. The Connector for SCEP helps you to reduce your PKI operational costs by using AWS Private CA with SCEP-compatible MDM solutions including, but not limited to, Microsoft Intune and Jamf Pro.

The Connector for SCEP is one of three connectors that allow you to use AWS Private CA with Kubernetes, Active Directory, and, now, mobile devices. By using connectors, you can replace your existing CAs with AWS Private CA in environments that have an established native certificate distribution solution. This means that instead of using multiple CA solutions, you can utilize a single private CA solution for your enterprise.

The Connector for SCEP is available in AWS Regions where AWS Private CA is available excluding GovCloud and China regions.

This feature is offered at no additional charge. You only pay for the AWS Private CAs and the certificates issued from them. To get started, see the Getting started guide or go to the Connector for SCEP console.
