Certificate inventory

Connect certificate inventory to cryptographic context and ownership

Qubrisk adds certificate and TLS observations to the same evidence model used for software cryptography. It is a migration inventory and workflow—not a certificate authority or certificate lifecycle automation replacement.

Decision brief

Primary query
certificate inventory software
Best for
Teams that need reviewable cryptographic evidence, ownership, and continuous migration control.
Safety boundary
Evidence supports decisions; it is not proof of implementation safety or compliance.

Certificate inventory is essential but should not become a proxy for the entire cryptographic estate. Certificates expose subjects, issuers, validity, public-key algorithms, signatures, chains, and endpoint configuration, while application code and dependencies often contain additional cryptography that is invisible to network discovery. A migration program needs both views and the relationship to the system that owns them.

Qubrisk inspects explicitly authorized TLS targets and combines those observations with repository, dependency, configuration, and container evidence. Teams can connect an endpoint to its project and owner, review policy status, include relevant assets in a CBOM, and track migration work. Existing CLM or PKI systems may remain authoritative for issuance, renewal, revocation, and private-key operations.

Capabilities

What the operating model needs to do

01

Authorized TLS discovery

Inspect only targets the organization has explicitly placed in scope and preserve observation time and endpoint context.

02

Certificate evidence

Record observable chain, validity, algorithm, protocol, cipher, and key information without collecting private material.

03

Software correlation

Relate endpoint observations to repositories, configurations, services, dependencies, and accountable teams.

04

Migration workflow

Route algorithm, protocol, or certificate changes into owned plans with verification and drift history.

Workflow

A repeatable path to evidence

Use explicit scope, accountable decisions, and verification gates. Keep unknowns visible so progress is not manufactured by narrowing the denominator.

  1. 1

    Define endpoints

    List approved public and internal targets, environment, service owner, and scan constraints.

  2. 2

    Observe safely

    Collect certificate and negotiated TLS metadata without attempting unauthorized access or private-key collection.

  3. 3

    Correlate

    Link endpoints and certificates to software projects, infrastructure configuration, policy, and dependencies.

  4. 4

    Maintain

    Repeat observations, review changes, and coordinate required action with CLM, PKI, platform, and application owners.

Expected deliverables

Artifacts the next team can inspect

  • Authorized endpoint register
  • Certificate and TLS observations
  • Project and ownership mapping
  • Policy and migration status
  • CBOM and evidence export

Buyer checklist

Questions for a proof of value

  1. 01Do we need inventory or full certificate lifecycle automation?
  2. 02Which internal and external endpoints can be discovered?
  3. 03Can certificate observations be linked to source and configuration?
  4. 04Does the product collect or handle private keys?
  5. 05How do findings integrate with our existing PKI or CLM platform?

Limits and cautions

What this page does not promise

  • Qubrisk is not a certificate authority or automated certificate issuance platform.
  • Endpoint results are point-in-time observations and require scheduled refresh.
  • TLS reachability and negotiated behavior can vary by network path and client capability.
Local-first discovery

Start with evidence from one representative repository

Run a scoped scan, inspect every result, export the CBOM, and decide whether the evidence is strong enough to support your operating model.
