Configuring Certificate Authorities and PKI
Integration
Parallels Mac Management can be directly integrated with Certificate Authorities (CA) and Public
Key Infrastructure (PKI). Such integration enables the use of certificates for advanced user
authentication and secure access to SCCM.
If you would like to integrate Parallels Mac Management with CA and PKI, you need to complete
the steps described in the following subsections prior to installing Parallels Mac Management. If you
are not planning on using PKI, you can skip this section and continue with Installing Parallels Mac
Management for Microsoft SCCM 2012 (p. 31).
If you are no
t sure whether you'll be using PKI, you can skip this section and perform the
integration later by completing the steps described here and reconfiguring the Parallels
Configuration Manager Proxy.
Certificate Authority and PKI Integration Overview
By integrating Parallels Mac Management with Certificate Authority and PKI you'll be able to:
• Obtain security certificates for assigned Macs from a Certificate Authority trusted by SCCM.
• Secure the communication between Mac computers and SCCM by using mutual authentication
and encrypted data transfers.
