Certificates
Certificates are used to authenticate users. Certificates are issued to you by various CAs
(Certification Authorities). These Certificates are called "Self Certificates".
Each CA also issues a certificate to itself. This Certificate is required in order to validate
communication with the CA. These certificates are called "Trusted Certificates."
The Certificates screen lists both the Trusted Certificate - the certificates of each CA itself -
and Self Certificates - the certificates issued to you.
