About Ofgem

Ofgem, the independent energy regulator for Great Britain, is dedicated to delivering a greener, fairer energy system in the UK. With a team of 501-1000 employees, Ofgem plays a crucial role in overseeing the energy market and ensuring its sustainability and equity for all consumers.

Enhancing Ofgem’s digital security

Ofgem can now fully manage their digital certificates through Sectigo Certificate Manager (SCM). SCM enables self-administration, discovery, automation, and instant provisioning of all digital certificates from Sectigo External CA, Sectigo private PKI, and Microsoft AWS or GCP private PKI. With the rise in enterprise encryption and the upcoming reduction of SSL certificate validity to 90 days, there is an increasing need for certificate authority (CA) agility and machine identity protection

Solution 

  • Deployment automated for ease of uptake and install.
  • Ultima provided an efficient and competitive route to market via G-Cloud.
  • To prevent digital certificates expiring or being breached, SCM was chosen.
  • An all-in-one platform provided through the use of SCM, allowing management of certificates from one dashboard.

Outcomes 

  • Downtime minimised: Certificates can be managed from one place, reducing expired certificates and therefore service downtimes.
  • Avoid breaches: Security vulnerabilities are reduced through ensuring certificates are renewed.
  • Compliance Eased: Automated renewals with SCM reducing manual certificate management.
