Using Ansible playbooks to automate more than just certificate issuance

Red Hat X Podcast Series

Over the past few decades, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) has grown – both in use cases it enables and the overall footprint within our digital lives. As a result, certificates are everywhere. What has been used to secure websites, networks, and VPNs, has evolved to meet the demands of newer use cases like IoT and containerization. It‘s these new use cases that are driving increased adoption. But they’re also adding to the complexity and increased demand on security environments. In the world of DevOps, automation is a survival strategy, and security is a necessity, creating the need for a secure automation platform as a part of the software developer’s tool set. This is where Entrust CA Gateway Ansible Module can help: not just by issuing strong identities but also having the ability to manage them and renew them in an automated way.
In this podcast, learn about the Ansible playbooks that can help you implement certificate-based security within your DevOps automation journey and how it makes security seamless for developers supporting the fast-paced DevOps environments, so you don’t have to build the security pieces yourself.
