AWS Application Load Balancer

Overview

QCecuring integrates with AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB) to provide visibility and lifecycle management for TLS certificates used on load balancer listeners. Security teams can ensure all ALB-fronted applications maintain properly managed, policy-compliant certificates.

Key capabilities

• Discovery of certificates bound to ALB HTTPS listeners across AWS accounts and regions.
• Monitoring of certificate expiration and health for all ALB-associated certificates.
• Automated workflows to provision certificates via ACM and bind them to ALB listeners.
• Support for multiple certificates per listener using SNI-based certificate selection.
• Centralized reporting of ALB certificate posture alongside other infrastructure.

Typical use cases

• Organizations using ALBs for TLS termination across multiple AWS accounts.
• Security teams needing unified visibility into certificate health on load balancer infrastructure.
• Platform teams managing certificate bindings for ALBs serving multiple applications.

High-level integration flow

1. Configure QCecuring with IAM permissions to read ELBv2 and ACM resources across accounts.
2. The platform discovers ALBs, their HTTPS listeners, and associated certificate bindings.
3. Certificates are correlated with QCecuring’s inventory for unified lifecycle tracking.
4. Automated alerts notify teams of upcoming expirations or policy violations on ALB endpoints.
5. Renewal workflows provision new certificates and update ALB listener configurations automatically.

CBOM Discovery

QCecuring discovers certificates bound to ALB listeners across accounts and regions, mapping their algorithms and key sizes into your CBOM inventory.
