Digital Certificate
The digital equivalent of an ID card used in conjunction with a public key encryption system. Digital
certificates are issued by a trusted third party known as a "Certificate Authority" (CA) such as
VeriSign (www.verisign.com). The CA verifies that a public key belongs to a specific company or
individual (the "Subject"), and the validation process the public key goes through to determine if the
claim of the subject is correct and depends on the level of certification and the CA.
