Certificate management 7.0(1) Digital certificates (including CA certificates, identity
certificates, and code signer certificates) provide digital
identification for authentication. A digital certificate
includes information that identifies a device or user, such as
the name, serial number, company, department, or IP
address. CAs are trusted authorities that “sign” certificates
to verify their authenticity, thereby guaranteeing the
identity of the device or user. CAs issue digital certificates
in the context of a PKI, which uses public-key or
private-key encryption to ensure security.
