Create an Entrust certificate authority¶

Entrust features a tool that helps streamline the procurement and administration of SSL certificates. Venafi has partnered with Entrust to give you the ability to quickly and easily request and renew certificates. TLS Protect Cloud supports both Pooling/Non-pooling and FLEX pricing models from Entrust.
