Distribute Authentication Certificates

You can use profiles to distribute authentication certificates.
There are two distribution methods.

• Distribute a common certificate to all devices at once (iOS, Android)
• Distribute different certificates to devices at once (iOS, Android, Windows)

This page describes the procedure for distributing a common certificate.
To distribute different certificates at once, see Distribute Certificates to Specified Devices Using a CSV File.
