Sectigo Delegated Admin

What is delegated admin?

A Sectigo Delegated Admin is an administrator role within the Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM) system that has the ability to create and manage their own organizations and departments, including viewing, editing, and deleting these entities. This role allows for a decentralized management approach, where a "master" administrator (MRAO) can delegate control over specific organizations or departments to another administrator within the SCM platform, enabling them to manage certificate settings, access controls, and even certificate issuance for their delegated areas. 

Who can be delegated admin?

Delegated admins are usually the IT support in each department. If you require access, please reach out to them or have your department onboard you.
