When MobiControl connects to the CLA, it invokes the GetCertificate method to communicate with the Agent. At present, this method generates a COM-based Certificate Request and submits it to the Certificate Authority for certificate issuance.

Because Certificate Request objects are created on the CLA side,  the CLA encounters performance bottlenecks. To address this, the flow will be updated so that the Certificate Request is created only on the MobiControl side and then passed to the CLA as a parameter in the GetCertificate method. The CLA will simply reuse this object, reducing its processing load.

Customer Impact: For customers who have applied security policies on the Certificate Authority side that validate the request based on the process name, an update will be required. With this change, the process name may appear as one of the following:

Soti.Cloudlink.GrpcServer.exe

MCDeplSvr.exe
