Simplified Certificate Enrollment Protocol

Simplified Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP) was used in a closed network where all end-points are trusted. The goal of SCEP is to support the secure issuance of certificates to network devices in a scalable manner. Within an enterprise domain, it enables network devices that do not run with domain credentials to enroll for certificates from a Certification Authority (CA).

At the end of the transactions that are defined in this protocol, the network device has a private key and associated certificate that is issued by a CA. Applications on the device may use the key and its associated certificate to interact with other entities on the network. The most common usage of this certificate on a network device is to authenticate the device in an IPSec session.

ThinOS is treated as a network device. The functionality of ThinOS SCEP includes manual certificate request, automatic certificate request, and automatic renewal of certificate.
