Features
Simple deployment and management
Spin up a dedicated, enterprise-grade, private PKI in minutes and start issuing certificates. Free yourself from the burden of operating your own infrastructure, CAs, and HSMs. Easily create your own root CA directly in the cloud or create a subordinate CA that chains up to your on-prem root.
World class reliability and scalability
Certificate Authority Service has some of the highest availability and scalability in the industry and is backed by SLA. Confidently scale to millions of certificates and further increase scale by grouping a few CAs under a CA pool. More importantly, have peace of mind knowing that you are depending on the same infrastructure that powers Google's own workloads and services.
Automatic certificate management for Google Cloud services
Use our native integration with Google Cloud services like Cloud Service Mesh, load balancers, GCE VMs (through managed workload identities), Secure Web Proxy, and many more so you don't have to manage your certificate's life cycle.
Full customization of your CA
Scale from simple to advanced use cases by configuring the root CA (for example, existing on-premises or cloud), custom key sizes and algorithms, location (region) of the CA, bring your own cloud KMS key, and more. Manage, automate, and integrate private CAs and certificates in the way that’s most convenient for you: via APIs, gcloud command line, or cloud console.
Support compliance with various regulations
Have confidence that your CAs are approved as part of ISO 27001, 27017, 27018, SOC1, SOC2, SOC3, BSI C5, and PCI DSS.
Competitive, pay-as-you-go pricing
Help lower your total cost of ownership and simplify licensing with pay-as-you-go pricing and zero capital expenditures. Pay only for what you use. Also, for high volume certificates, consider subscription for even less expensive alternatives.
Enable defense-in-depth with granular access controls
Define granular, context-aware access controls and virtual security perimeters for CA Service with Cloud IAM and VPC Service Controls. Leverage certificate templates and per user-group policies to achieve even more granular control over certificate issuance.
Audit user activity
Obtain tamper-proof logs and gain visibility into who did what, when, and where with Cloud Audit Logs.
