What is a digital certificate?
|
The digital certificate is a signed statement issued by a known Trusted Authority, a Certification Authority, to certify the link between the electronic public key and the identity of its owner. The owner is assumed to be the only entity to be able to know or use the corresponding private signing key.
Digital certificates are used to secure all your Internet activities, e.g., web browsing, personal or professional secure messaging, access control to personal, private, confidential or financial information, to secure on-line commercial transactions of all kinds over the Net, and to secure any Web-based Browser-Server application. In other words, a digital certificate can be presented electronically to prove your identity or your right to access information or services online.
Digital Certificates bind an identity to a pair of electronic keys that can be used for signing and/or encrypting digital information.
