    Is what you looking for built in mecm? No. Can you added this as custom inventory? Yes. A bing search will help you do this.

    Hi, @Mahendran M
    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.
    SCCM cannot get the certificate information from clients directly like Garth said.
    We can first inject certificates info into WMI by using the VBscript Tool.
    Then use sccm custom hardware inventory to collect the info from WMI, for the detailed steps, we may refer to Sherry's answer in another thread:

    Thanks for your clarifications.

    SCCM can read the certificate from Machine level but current user is not working...

    OS : Windows 10 and Windows 7

    Scripts : Powershell

    Cert:\LocalMachine\My --> working fine

    Cert:\currentuser\my -->not working

    You will need to give more details as to why it is not working. What exactly are you doing?

    I am trying to do exactly the same thing.
    So far I am considering creating a scheduled task that runs when the user logs on to write the user certificate information to WMI. From there it is easy to collect it.

    I guess an application/package or even compliance item could be used to create such a scheduled task.

    But maybe someone has a some more elegant idea?
