Registering these profiles is important to distribute certificates in a controlled and efficient way. These profiles establish rules and formats for selective disclosure of information while maintaining security and compliance. The resulting standardization simplifies administration, minimizes errors, and preserves the integrity of public key systems. Also, when publishing a certificate and selecting a previously registered publication profile, several fields will be filled automatically, speeding up the process. ## Create a publishing profile To create a publishing profile, see the following steps: 1. On **Segura™ Platform**, in the navigation bar, hover over the **Products menu** and select **Certificate Manager**. 2. In the side menu, select **Publishing > Publishing profiles**. 3. Click the **Actions menu**, and select a publishing profile. 4. In the **Settings** tab, enter the following information for the profile: 1. In the **Profile name *** field, enter a name for the publishing profile 2. (Optional): In the **Credential for execution** section, enter the credential that will be used to authenticate the devices. 5. In the publishing profile tab, enter the information accordingly to the profile. For more information on each profile, see [Publishing profiles](/v4-2/docs/clm-publishing-profiles). 6. After filling all fields, click **Continue**. 7. In the **Devices** tab, click **+ Add** to enter the devices where the certificates should be published. 8. Select the desired devices, and click **Add**. 9. Click **Continue**. 10. In the **Review** tab, review all information entered previously, and click **Save**. Attention To perform authentication, the system will locate the username of the credential in all registered devices. Therefore, the device must have a credential with the same username inserted in the **Access credential registered in the system** field or **Credential username** field. The new profile will appear listed on the [Publishing profiles](/v4-2/docs/clm-publishing-profiles) report screen. ## Edit a publishing profile To edit a publishing profile, see the following steps: 1.
