CA
A certificate authority is a business entity that is recognized in the IT industry for
meeting high standards of reliable screening, identification, and other important
security criteria. Examples of CAs include Thawte and VeriSign. After the
CA receives your CSR, they review and verify the information the CSR contains.
If the applicant meets the CA's security standards, the CA issues a certificate to
the applicant that uniquely identifies that applicant for transactions over
networks and on the Internet.
