F5 Silverline
PRODUCT
HTTPS encryption is more prevalent than ever but can be difficult to scale. F5 Silverline and Venafi have teamed up to make it easy to automate the use of keys and certificates for application teams, eliminating manual processes and reducing the risk of outages caused by expired certificates.
Overview
Using the Adaptable Application driver, the Venafi platform automatically provisions and renews TLS certificates on F5 Silverline, keeping application services protected without manual intervention. The integration works across the F5 Silverline product family:
- Silverline DDoS Protection — detects and mitigates even the largest volumetric DDoS attacks at layers 3–7, before they reach your network.
- Silverline Web Application Firewall — a managed service that protects web apps and data while helping ensure compliance with PCI DSS.
- Silverline Shape Defense — prevents large-scale fraud and degraded user experiences by detecting bots, fake users, and unauthorized transactions.
Key benefits
- Automated certificate lifecycle — request, provision, and renew certificates on F5 Silverline directly from the Venafi platform.
- Reduced outages — replace error-prone manual certificate handling with policy-driven automation.
- Consistent policy enforcement — apply enterprise certificate policy to the machine identities used by F5 Silverline services.
