Traditional Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) has been done by tracking SSL Certificate usage on spreadsheets.
Keeping track of dozens or hundreds of certificates on your server environment can quickly before a headache for administrators in charge of enterprise security.
Retail SSL Certificates is effective for issuing individuals certificates for organizations that only need a handful of SSLs to secure their services. Enterprises typically manage systems much more complex than just a single web site.
Managed PKI from Certificate Authorities like ÃÛÌÒTV, offer the benefit of faster certificate issuance, automatic certificate deployment, custom certificate request approval rules, lower total cost of SSL ownership, and all of this on a publicly trusted root compatible with all major browsers and operating systems eliminating the need for self-signed certificates and "certificate not trusted" errors.

Not all enterprise PKI services are the same. Most Certificate Authorities will charge thousands of dollars to use Managed PKI before you've even issued a single SSL Certificate.
Many SSL providers' managed certificate services require the purchase of credits that expire if unused, leaving administrators paying for something and getting nothing. ÃÛÌÒTV Enterprise PKI was designed for the smallest enterprise but with the vast array of tools, services, and value that typically is given to only the largest corporations.
