The central challenge for University of Waterloo is for the individual IT teams on campus to be able to manage and issue their own SSL or TLS certificates – some groups have up to 100 certificates under their umbrella. Making sure all of the websites and applications associated with these groups, across the university, remain secure is a substantial task.
