Co-Managed PKI

Co-Managed PKI

Certificate lifecycle management and optional RADIUS-as-a-Service for 802.1X — delivered on a cloud-native PKI platform.

Talk to an Expert

Certificate infrastructure fails quietly. Certs expire undetected. Enrollment policies drift from the endpoints they’re supposed to reach. By the time authentication breaks, the gap has been growing for months.

Challenge

Silent Expiration Risk

Certificates expire on the schedule your MDM enrollment policy set years ago. When they do, 802.1X authentication fails — silently and at scale.

Coverage Gaps
Enrollment Coverage Gaps

Your policy reaches most managed endpoints. Not all of them. The ones it misses are invisible until an authentication failure makes them visible.

Policy Drift
Integration Drift

ISE, Entra ID, and Intune have to stay in sync with your CA. As each platform updates independently, integration health requires active maintenance.

SERVICE SCOPE

What Co-Managed PKI Includes

Bravo operates alongside your team on an ongoing basis — not instead of them. Here’s what’s covered.

Certificate Lifecycle

Platform Lifecycle

Monitoring & Health

Incident Response

Elective Hours

Certificate Lifecycle

Bravo manages certificate issuance, renewal, and revocation monitoring across your managed endpoint population. Certificate profile updates and coverage reviews are conducted on a scheduled cadence. For RAD-tier customers, RADIUS policy management for 802.1X/EAP-TLS authentication is included alongside certificate lifecycle management.

how it works

From Assessment to Steady State

Co-Managed PKI is an ongoing operational relationship. Here’s what the engagement looks like from deployment forward.

01
Infrastructure Assessment

Bravo evaluates your current certificate coverage, enrollment policy reach, and integration health before deployment begins.

02
Deployment & Integration

Bravo deploys the PKI platform, configures enrollment policy via MDM, integrates with your identity provider, and validates end-to-end certificate delivery.

03
Knowledge Transfer

Bravo builds runbooks for your team’s L1 triage and trains staff on Co-Managed procedures — so your team becomes more capable, not more dependent.

04
Escalation & Incident Response

When something breaks, the path is defined. L1: your team. L2/L3: Bravo. L4: Cisco TAC, coordinated by Bravo. No ambiguity, no gap.

WHY BRAVO FOR PKI

The Numbers Behind the Partnership

Every ISE EAP-TLS deployment depends on a working PKI. Bravo has built that connection across hundreds of enterprise environments.

“PKI expertise is hard to find and expensive to retain. We tried to manage it internally and paid for that decision every six months when something expired unexpectedly. Bravo owns it now. The problem went from recurring to solved.”

Energy Company, 4,000 Employees

VP, IT Security & Compliance

“Bravo’s Co-Managed PKI gave us a certificate infrastructure our team could finally understand and rely on. Bravo handles the operational complexity and we handle the business decisions. That division of labor works exactly as it should.”

Financial Services Company, 3,000 Employees

Director, Information Security

“Certificate lifecycle management is one of those things that’s invisible until it breaks — and when it breaks, it takes down 802.1X with it. Bravo’s Co-Managed PKI means we have someone proactively monitoring expiration, renewals, and health. No more surprise outages.”

WHO IT’S FOR

IT Business Leader
IT Business Leader

ISE is deployed but EAP-TLS isn’t working — the certificate infrastructure is the gap between the investment and the outcome.

You know certificate-based authentication is the right architecture. The PKI to support it at scale is the missing piece.

You manage certificates today and that’s not your primary area of focus. Bravo provides the platform and operational model that takes the risk out of the process.

Your customer’s ISE deployment isn’t doing EAP-TLS because the certificate infrastructure isn’t there. Bravo closes that gap.
