CA Signed Certificate
Certificate Authority (CA) is a trusted organization which creates and sells TLS Certificates to websites. CA Signed
Certificates are the TLS Certificates which are created by such trusted CAs, signed and sold to any applicant.
These certificates contain a public key and the identity of the owner; and it is upto the CA to verify the owner's

time.
