Outdated and poorly managed certificates exposed the organization to frequent security risks and disruptions. They urgently needed a powerful solution to regain control and secure their operations.
Unmanaged and expired certificates created vulnerabilities that led to costly downtime and operational failures. IT teams were overwhelmed by the challenge of detecting and responding to certificate issues in real time. Without centralized management, the process was chaotic, time-consuming, and prone to errors.
With Segura® Certificate Manager, the retailer automated certificate renewal and revocation to prevent expired certificates from causing disruptions. Centralized policies made it easier to issue and manage certificates, while detailed audits gave the team full visibility into their certificate status.
This solution replaced a chaotic, manual process with a streamlined, efficient system.

Introduction
Imagine managing a sprawling network of over 5,000 digital certificates spread across a mix of on-premises and multi-cloud environments. For one of Brazil’s leading retailers, this was their daily reality — and it was costing them. Outdated and unmanaged certificates left their operations vulnerable to security risks and downtime, putting both business operations and reputation at stake.
In a fast-paced retail environment where every second counts, this retailer knew they needed a change. Their goal was clear: regain control, streamline processes, and eliminate the chaos of managing certificates manually. That’s where Segura® stepped in.
Major Challenges with Security and Compliance
The retailer’s IT team was overwhelmed by the constant risk of certificate-related disruptions. Certificates were expiring without warning, causing costly outages and operational slowdowns.
