Consultancy on Implementation of Certification Authorities (CAs)

A Certification Authority (CA), also sometimes referred to as a Certificate Authority, validates the identities of entities (individuals, websites, organizations etc) and bind them to cryptographic keys through the issuance of electronic documents known as digital certificates.

Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a set of processes, policies and technology for associating cryptographic keys with the entity to whom those keys were issued. PKI is made of several elements including CAs.

It is a well-known authentication and encryption method used to confirm the identity of individuals and entities as well as validate information being shared.

CAs must adhere to stringent industry standards and hence there are specific procedures and processes to be followed.
