DigiCert Private Intermediate CA

Extend your private PKI with DigiCert Private Intermediate CA. This layer sits beneath the root trust anchor and handles certificate issuance for internal workloads, giving security teams a practical way to scale trust while keeping the root CA protected and isolated. For enterprise environments, the intermediate CA is where operational control meets day-to-day issuance. It supports delegated administration, policy enforcement, and certificate lifecycle management across internal applications, device fleets, and service identities. That makes it a strong fit for organizations that need consistent trust at scale without loosening control over the root. Compared with simpler certificate services, a private intermediate CA gives infrastructure teams a more disciplined PKI structure. It helps separate trust anchoring from issuance, supports cleaner governance, and fits environments where certificate volume, segmentation, and compliance requirements demand a more deliberate architecture. DigiCert’s private PKI model is built for that level of control.
