Migrating CAs (CA Switch)
The CA Switch feature in the Inventory module allows you to re-enroll certificates from one CA to another CA. Once triggered, the certificate migration readiness for every certificate will be shown in the Process Explorer, which needs to be validated before the CA switch is performed.
Supported CA Switch to AppViewX Native PKI CA
Note: As part of AppViewX's Crypto Agility initiative, the CA Switch feature
now supports migrating end-entity certificates from supported external Certificate
Authorities to AppViewX Native PKI CA, without disrupting the endpoint
identity, usage, or application binding.
The following external CAs are supported as source CAs for switching to AppViewX
Native PKI CA:
| Source CA | Switch to AppViewX Native PKI CA |
|---|---|
| Google Certificate Authority Service (GCP CAS) | Supported |
| Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS / MSCA) Enterprise | Supported |
| EJBCA | Supported |
Key capabilities include single or bulk migration (up to 100 certificates per batch), template mapping, attribute preservation (Subject DN, SANs, KU/EKU), and optional PQC algorithm support (Falcon, Dilithium, SPHINCS+).
For the complete procedure, readiness validation rules, cryptographic options, and bulk switch actions, see CA Switch to AppViewX Native PKI CA.
