AWS Certificate Manager
Briefly

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has announced the launch of exportable public certificates through AWS Certificate Manager (ACM). Customers can now securely issue public Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates, including access to private keys, which allows secure TLS termination in various environments. The new exportable option enhances flexibility by permitting use beyond AWS-integrated services. Pricing is straightforward, with certificates valid for 395 days. Access to features like monitoring and automation through CloudWatch events ensure effective certificate management. Security remains a priority with restrictions on existing certificates. Full availability in all AWS regions facilitates widespread use.
AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) has launched exportable public certificates, allowing organizations to secure workloads inside or outside AWS with ease. This new feature provides the capability to issue public TLS certificates and access private keys, enabling secure TLS termination across diverse environments.
The new exportable public certificates are valid for 395 days, costing $15 per fully qualified domain name (FQDN) and $149 per wildcard name. This offers simple, one-time pricing with no need for bulk issuance contracts.
Administrators can enforce granular permissions using IAM policies to specify which roles and users are authorized to request exportable certificates, thus enhancing the security posture of certificate management.
The feature is now available in all AWS regions, including GovCloud (US) and China Regions, supporting fast issuance and centralized management for both AWS and multi-cloud environments.
