Manage Certificates for Private Resource Decryption

Secure Access's Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy can protect your private resources. Private resources are applications, networks, or subnets that are not publicly accessible from outside your network. Secure Access requires certificates in order to connect user traffic with your private resources and decrypt that traffic for inspection by the IPS or the DLP policy. You can upload the hosting server's certificate for a resource when you configure the resource, or manage certificates from the certificate list. Endpoint devices must be able to validate the certificates that you upload.
