Certification Authority(CA)
A certificate authority or certification authority (CA) is an entity that issues digital certificates. A digital
certificate certifies the ownership of a public key by the named subject of the certificate. This allows others
(relying parties) to rely upon signatures or on assertions made about the private key that corresponds to the
certified public key. A CA acts as a trusted third party, trusted both by the subject (owner) of the certificate
and by the party relying upon the certificate. The format of these certificates is specified by the X.509
standard. Multiple RA can connect to a single CA instance using Secure REST API.
