Project Scope

Thirdera's Certificate Management Blueprint includes a list of deliverables to set your Certificate Management program on course for long-term success with greater visibility. Guided by proven best practices, our team of technical experts configures and implements a proven solution while establishing a foundation for greater automation. Key deliverables include:

  • Enabling Discovery to gather deployed certificates.
  • Integrating with ServiceNow-supported certificate authorities, such as DigiCert, Entrust, GoDaddy, Sectigo, and Microsoft, to retrieve an inventory of issued certificates.
  • Activate 6 out-of-the-box catalog items associated with ServiceNow Certificate Management.

ServiceNow Discovery and ITOM Visibility Licensing is a pre-requisite for Certificate Management. The customer will be responsible for providing the necessary roles to access the catalog items and for the deployment to the Production environment. Additional hours may be necessary if Discovery is not operational.

Items that are out of scope include additional customization or development of the ServiceNow platform, development of custom discovery patterns, and modifications to the existing out-of-the-box catalog items.
