From Chaos to Control: Modern Mainframe Certificate Management

Content by Broadcom Mainframe Software

Mainframe certificates are often managed in isolation, which creates blind spots and unnecessary risk.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how a guided certificate assistant on z/OS, paired with an integrated lifecycle management approach, can streamline provisioning, automate renewals, enforce consistent policies, and deliver central visibility across your mainframe certificate estate. You’ll see practical ways to get ahead of expirations, simplify audits, and flow mainframe certificate data into your enterprise CLM platforms, all while preparing your PKI for emerging cryptographic and post‑quantum requirements.

Key takeaways:

• Streamline and standardize mainframe certificate installation to reduce manual effort, configuration drift, and deployment risk.
• Centrally manage certificate lifecycles to stay ahead of expirations, shrinking validity periods, and evolving compliance requirements.
• Integrate mainframe certificate management with enterprise CLM tooling to gain unified visibility, governance, and auditability across platforms.
• Establish a foundation for crypto‑agility and post‑quantum cryptography by centralizing the crypto inventory and automating how algorithms and certificates can be rotated.
