# Rename certificates

If you have multiple certificates for the same vendor program, you can choose different names for those certificates so you can identify them easily. Certificates can be renamed regardless of their current status.

You can rename a certificate either from the **certificate details** or the **program details** page. When updating the name, we recommend providing a unique name.
