# Navigating the CERTInext Interface

CERTInext is organized around a left-hand navigation menu that provides structured access to all certificate lifecycle, key management, integration, and governance capabilities. The interface is designed to support both operational users and administrators, allowing quick movement between day-to-day tasks and strategic oversight functions.

The primary navigation sections include:

* **Dashboard** – Provides a consolidated, real-time view of certificate health, risks, and operational status across the organization.

This structure ensures users can quickly locate relevant functions while maintaining a clear separation between operational actions and administrative configuration.
