4 Computer Certificate Autoenrollment Task

This section describes the Computer Certificate Autoenrollment Task. Any system using digital certificates needs to be provisioned with those certificates. This provisioning can be manual, using custom software. Autoenrollment achieves provisioning driven by policy and performs as automatically as possible. It is therefore preferred in an environment where certificate provisioning policy is established at a central source and where there are enough computers to make the cost of manual enrollment prohibitive.
