pki-ca-9.0.25-1.lbn13.noarch

The Certificate Authority (CA) is a required PKI subsystem which issues, renews, revokes, and publishes certificates as well as compiling and publishing Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).

The Certificate Authority can be configured as a self-signing Certificate Authority, where it is the root CA, or it can act as a subordinate CA, where it obtains its own signing certificate from a public CA.

This package is a part of the PKI Core used by the Certificate System.
