Description
Select the bit size of the new self-signed certificate. Choices are:
512 bits
768 bits
1024 bits
2048 bits
The larger the bit size, the longer it takes to generate the key.
Select the type of key:
RSA = Public-Key Cryptography algorithm based on large prime
numbers, invented by Rivest Shamir and Adleman. Used for encryption
and signing.
DSA = Digital Signature Algorithm also based on large prime numbers,
but can only be used for signing. Developed by the US government to
avoid the patents on RSA.
