Connect CertFusion with GitLab

Development Team Managers need to automate SSL/TLS certificate issuance for new service deployments when a project reaches the deployment stage in the GitLab CI/CD pipeline. By integrating CertFusion, certificates are directly applied to services, ensuring secure, encrypted connections right from launch without manual intervention.

Security Auditors need to validate and renew certificates when GitLab detects that a certificate is nearing expiration. Through CertFusion integration, GitLab can trigger an audit and renewal process within CertFusion, ensuring continuous compliance with security policies without disrupting ongoing operations.

DevOps Teams need to generate and distribute internal certificates for testing environments whenever a new branch is created in GitLab for a feature or bug fix. This integration with CertFusion ensures that all test environments maintain high security standards, mirroring production conditions closely.

Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) need immediate reissuance of certificates in response to security incidents identified by GitLab’s monitoring tools. By connecting CertFusion, new certificates can be issued and deployed automatically to affected systems, thus minimizing downtime and potential security breaches.

Compliance Officers need to report on the status of certificates across all projects at the end of each quarter. With CertFusion integrated into GitLab, automated reports detailing certificate validity, usage, and compliance status can be generated and accessed directly from GitLab, streamlining the compliance review process.
