Abstract: A system for managing security certificates on a plurality of remote computers comprises a certificate manager that can determine in accordance with at least one preestablished criterion whether a security certificate on a remote computer is to be managed. The system also includes an installer module that can access an account of the remote computer to manage the security certificate. Methods of using the system are also provided.

Abstract: A system and method for generating and/or managing virtual network(s) is provided. The system provides an interface for end-user(s) to create a virtual network (e.g., on-demand). The virtual network comprises a plurality of servers that allow the user to, for example, develop and/or test software, migrate applications, apply tasks and/or troubleshoot scenarios in a simulated, distributed environment. A user can communicate with the system via an interface (e.g., web-based) to create and/or manage the virtual network. Additionally, the system can employ a common infrastructure to facilitate creation and/or management of a variety of virtual deployment configurations. The common infrastructure can be designed, for example, by administrator(s) having knowledge of hardware and/or software available for employment within the virtual network. The system can further provide a load-balancing mechanism to determine and/or distribute workload to computer(s) with available resource(s).
