Jellyfish AD CS Voyager

The Jellyfish AD CS Voyager is an advanced companion application designed to enhance the Microsoft Windows Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) PKI platform. As a PKI expert, Voyager reduces the burden on your security team, making it easy to get up to speed with your organisation’s PKI environment. Voyager can be used to update Jellyfish in the cloud, or installed as a standalone reporting tool inside your network.

Voyager probes your Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS) and AD CS, cataloging all your PKI assets into a comprehensive and transparent platform:

• Comprehensive Overview: See all Certificate Authorities across your Active Directory Forest.

• Revocation Management: Track Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL), online CRL responders, and OCSP responders.
• Enrolment Agent Services: Gain insights into which templates are available and frequently used by enrolment agent services.

Voyager goes beyond traditional tools, connecting your PKI assets to give you actionable insights:

• Template Usage and Frequency: Understand which templates are used and how often, guiding your decision to keep or retire them.
• CRL Management: Track when and where your CRLs are published and which CRLs are used as OCSPs, ensuring that revocations are efficiently managed.

Voyager provides proactive alerts, ensuring you’re always informed:

• Threshold Alerts: Receive notifications when the active certificate count exceeds a set threshold or when certificate issuance rates deviate from normal.
• Performance Warnings: Be alerted to high volumes of failed or rejected certificate requests, ensuring prompt attention to potential issues.
• Service Status Monitoring: Stay informed when critical AD CS services, online responders, or enrolment agent services are offline.
• Expiration Warnings: Get notified when CRLs are about to expire, reducing the risk of unexpected outages.
