Git abuse rate limiting is a feature to automatically ban users who download, clone, pull, fetch, or fork more than a specified number of repositories of a group in a given time frame. Banned users cannot access the top-level group or any of its non-public subgroups via HTTP or SSH. The rate limit also applies to users who authenticate with [personal](../../../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md) or [group access tokens](../../../user/group/settings/group_access_tokens.md), as well as [CI/CD job tokens](../../../ci/jobs/ci_job_token.md).

+# Manage group's SSH certificates **(PREMIUM SAAS)**
+
+Manage Git access to the projects by sharing public Certified Authority (`CA`) files in your organization's top-level group.
+
+Git access control options on GitLab SaaS (SSH, HTTPS) rely on credentials (such as access tokens and SSH keys)
+setup in the user profile and are out of control of the organization.
+To temporarily grant Git access to your projects, you can use SSH certificates.
+
+## Add a CA certificate to a top-level group
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/421915) in GitLab 16.4 [with a flag](../feature_flags.md) named `ssh_certificates_rest_endpoints`. Disabled by default.
+
+FLAG:
+On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.
+Prerequisites:
+
+- You must have the Owner role for the group.
+- The group must be a top-level group, not a subgroup.
+
+To add a CA certificate to a group:
+
+1. Generate an SSH key pair to be used as a Certified Authority file:
+
+ ```plaintext
+ ssh-keygen -f CA
+ ```
+
+1. Add the public key to the top-level group using [Group SSH certificates API](../../api/group_ssh_certificates.md#create-ssh-certificate)
+ to grant access to the projects of the group and its subgroups.
+
+## Issue CA certificates for users
+
+Prerequisites:
+
+- You must have the Owner role for the group.
+- The user certificates can only be used to access the projects within the top-level group and its subgroups.
+- A user's username or primary email (`user` or `user@example.com`) must be specified to associate a
+ GitLab user with the user certificate.
+- The user must be an [Enterprise User](../enterprise_user/index.md).
+
+To issue user certificates, use the private key from the pair you [created earlier](#add-a-ca-certificate-to-a-top-level-group):
+
+```shell
+ssh-keygen -s CA -I user@example.com -V +1d user-key.pub
+```
+
+The (`user-key.pub`) key is the public key from an SSH key pair that is used by a user for SSH authentication.
+The SSH key pair is either generated by a user or provisioned by the group owner infrastructure along with the SSH certificate.
+
+The expiration date (`+1d`) identifies how long the SSH certificate can be used to access the group projects.
+
+The user certificates can only be used to access the projects within the top-level group.
+
+## Enforce SSH certificates
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/421915) in GitLab 16.7 [with a flag](../feature_flags.md) named `enforce_ssh_certificates_via_settings`. Disabled by default.
+
+FLAG:
+On GitLab.com, this feature is not available.
+
+You can enforce usage of SSH certificates and forbid users from authenticating using SSH
+keys and access tokens.
+
+When SSH certificates are enforced, only individual user accounts are affected.
+It does not apply to service accounts, deploy keys, and other types of internal accounts.
+
+Prerequisites:
+
+- You must have the Owner role for the group.
+
+To enforce using SSH certificates:
+
+1. On the left sidebar, select **Search or go to** and find your group.
+1. Select **Settings > General**.
+1. Expand the **Permissions and group features** section.
+1. Select the **Enforce SSH Certificates** checkbox.
+1. Select **Save changes**.
