Introduction
Management of certificates is always required when communication links have to be secured with the help of asymmetric, cryptographic procedures. The security of the entire system is based on the security of the private keys and the validity of the associated certificates.
The meaningful use of certificates requires a public key infrastructure (PKI), which, in addition to the technical infrastructure, also includes services and guidelines for the secure operation of the PKI.
