Certificate Authority


(CA or "Trusted Third Party") An entity (typically a company) that issues ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=digital certificates">digital certificates to other entities (organisations or individuals) to allow them to prove their identity to others. A Certificate Authority might be an external company such as ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=VeriSign">VeriSign that offers digital certificate services or they might be an internal organisation such as a corporate ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=MIS">MIS department. The Certificate Authority' s chief function is to verify the identity of entities and issue digital certificates attesting to that identity. The process uses ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=public key cryptography">public key cryptography to create a "network of trust". If I want to prove my identity to you, I ask a CA (who you trust to have verified my identity) to encrypt a ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=hash">hash of my signed key with their ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=private key">private key. Then you can use the CA' s ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=public key">public key to decrypt the hash and compare it with a hash you calculate yourself. Hashes are used to decrease the amount of data that needs to be transmitted. The hash function must be {cryptographically strong}, e.g. {MD5}. ref="http://home.netscape.com/comprod/server_central/support/faq/certificate_faq.html#11">. (1998-03-30)
