What is Certificate Enrollment and how is it used?

Certificate enrollment is the process by which a user requests a?digital certificate?from a?Certificate Authority (CA). There are several methods for enabling certificate enrollment ranging from manual methods that are initiated by a user performing the certificate request to automatic methods where the certificate request is initiated by Group Policy or a login script. Manual enrollment is not well suited for mass certificate deployment because of the amount of time an organization must spend training personnel to use such a method. In contrast, Autoenrollment, on the other hand, lowers the cost of a?PKI?by reducing the time and effort required to deploy certificates.
