public key
A is published as part of a certificate, which associates that
key with a particular identity. The corresponding private key is kept
secret. Data encrypted with the public key can be decrypted only with
the private key.

A highly configurable set of software components and tools for
creating, deploying, and managing certificates. Certificate System is
comprised of five major subsystems that can be installed in different
Certificate System instances in different physical locations:
Manager, Online Certificate Status Manager,
Manager, Token Key Service, and Token Processing System.

Short for Rivest-Shamir-Adleman, a public-key algorithm for both
encryption and authentication. It was developed by Ronald Rivest, Adi
Shamir, and Leonard Adleman and introduced in 1978.
A key-exchange algorithm for SSL based on the RSA algorithm.
A Java™ term for the carefully defined limits within which Java™
code must operate.
A protocol that allows mutual authentication between a client and
server and the establishment of an authenticated and encrypted
connection. SSL runs above TCP/IP and below HTTP, LDAP, IMAP,
NNTP, and other high-level network protocols.
A feature that tests a Certificate System instance both when the
instance starts up and on-demand.
The process of identifying a server to a client. See also
