NetAttest EPS

NetAttest EPS is a dedicated PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) appliance developed by Soliton Systems that functions as an internal Certificate Authority (CA) for issuing and managing digital certificates. It is designed to provide certificate-based authentication for users, devices, and applications within an organisation's network infrastructure. The appliance manages the full certificate lifecycle, including certificate issuance, distribution, revocation, and expiration tracking. It supports common authentication use cases such as VPN access, wired and wireless (Wi-Fi/EAP-TLS) network authentication, IoT device identification, and intranet site security. TLS/SSL certificates can be deployed to internal and external-facing web servers. NetAttest EPS includes an internal CA by default, eliminating dependency on external certificate authorities and reducing costs associated with certificate procurement and configuration. An auto-enrolment feature automates the certificate issuance process, reducing the need for manual IT intervention. The appliance supports compatibility with Mobile Device Management (MDM) platforms for remote certificate deployment. Key operational characteristics include: - Centralised visibility into the status of all issued certificates - Scalable certificate management from small to large deployments - Automation of certificate deployment to minimise human error - Support for Zero Trust security architectures through digital identity enforcement - Role and policy assignment based on verified digital identities NetAttest EPS is delivered as a dedicated hardware appliance with specific security controls to restrict and fortify access to the CA component.
