Not with certs purchased from a third-party (which is the main reason for this thread although I didn't state that in my answer). For certs issued using a Microsoft Enterprise PKI and a GPO with auto-enrollment and auto-renew enabled, yes.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't the client enrollment through the GPO cause the clients to automatically renew the cert when it expires? ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [mssms] Implement SCCM 2012 encryption with 3rd party CA? Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2014 19:08:10 +0000 Also remember that the unique client cert per computer is not perpetual, you would have to repurchase all of those certs every year so it's even more expensive than you think. And how are you going to get the renewed certs out to clients? As for 8.1 managed via the Intune connector, be careful, it's not full management. You cannot do things like manage SCEP or push updates.

The expense of the client certs made us pause. The project is not dead, but since you need a unique client cert per computer on the internet, it's expensive. My understanding is that the clients will NOT auto-enroll you will need to deploy an SCCM client and unique cert by hand to each internet computer. Too bad SCCM/Intune only lets you manage Windows 8.1 desktops on the internet.
