AWS Certificate Manager certificates - AWS Certificate Manager (original) (raw)

ACM manages public, private, and imported certificates. Certificates are used to establish secure communications across the internet or within an internal network. You can request a publicly trusted certificate directly from ACM (an "ACM certificate"), import a publicly trusted certificate issued by a third party. Self-signed certificates are also supported. To provision your organization's internal PKI, you can issue ACM certificates signed by a private certificate authority (CA) created and managed by AWS Private CA. The CA may either reside in your account or be shared with you by a different account.

Note

Because certificates signed by a private CA are not trusted by default, administrators must install them in client trust stores.

To begin issuing certificates, sign into the AWS Management Console and open the ACM console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/acm/home. If the introductory page appears, choose Get Started. Otherwise, chooseCertificate Manager or Private CAs in the left navigation pane.
