**APIs profiled:** 2

Venafi is the machine identity security platform for discovering, issuing, provisioning and retiring TLS/SSL certificates, SSH keys, code-signing keys and workload identities across data centers, clouds and Kubernetes. Its Control Plane ships two public REST contracts: the SaaS "Certificate Manager - SaaS" API on api.venafi.cloud (six data-residency regions) and the self-hosted Trust Protection Foundation WebSDK. Venafi was acquired by CyberArk in 2024 and the products now carry CyberArk Certificate Manager branding; venafi.com itself 301s to Palo Alto Networks following its acquisition of CyberArk, while developer.venafi.com, docs.venafi.com, docs.venafi.cloud, api.venafi.cloud and github.com/Venafi remain live and are where every artifact in this profile came from.
