Introduction

Description

WinHorizon is the EverTrust WCCE proxy solution part of EverTrust Horizon suite.

This document is specific to WinHorizon version 2.0.

WinHorizon allows to connect Horizon to Windows Certificate Enrollment (WCCE) in order to issue certificates from an Active Directory environment.

Managing certificate lifecycle through the WCCE protocol involves up to three components:

  • One or more Active Directory assets (domain controller, server, workstation, user) as WCCE Client,

  • WinHorizon as the Active Directory enrollment service,

  • Horizon as the WCCE proxy.

The protocol paradigm can be described as follows: Every Windows Active Directory member (machines, users) can use DCOM interfaces to interact with a CA to request certificate enrollment.
