Digi-CA™ System Components

[1] The Digi-CA™ is a complete Digital Certificate [2] and certificate management system. It has three main components that are explained in more detail in their respective sub sections:

Suitable personnel would be the CTO, CIO, CISO, IT Director, Systems Manager, Systems Analyst, Analyst Programmer, Software Engineer, Technical Engineer and similar job functions with ‘hands on’ technical experience of five or more years. The sections of this online manual relevant to these Senior Administrators are marked in blue.

The Digi-CA™ RA Management Console is for use by RA Administrators. At a minimum, these should be qualified network Administrators with good working knowledge and qualifications specifically in IT and IT security networks. Suitable personnel would be the Technical Managers, Information Systems Manager, QA Manager, Product Manager, Systems Analyst, System Administrator, Senior Systems Engineer, Unix Administrator and similar job functions with ‘hands on’ technical experience of three or more years.

The Digi-CA™ Control Centre or LRA Management Console is for use by RA Operators. This is the most basic component of the Digi-CA™ system and the Operator needs only to have basic PC skills to adequately fulfill this role.
