  3. Self-signed certificate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-signed_certificate

    RFC 5280 defines self-signed certificates as "self-issued certificates where the digital signature may be verified by the public key bound into the certificate" [7] whereas a self-issued certificate is a certificate "in which the issuer and subject are the same entity". While in the strict sense the RFC makes this definition only for CA ...

  4. OpenSSL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSL

    OpenSSL 1.0.2 supported the use of the OpenSSL FIPS Object Module (FOM), which was built to deliver FIPS approved algorithms in a FIPS 140-2 validated environment. [ 43 ] [ 44 ] OpenSSL controversially decided to categorize the 1.0.2 architecture as 'end of life' or 'EOL', effective December 31, 2019, despite objections that it was the only ...

  5. Certificate signing request - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_signing_request

    In public key infrastructure (PKI) systems, a certificate signing request (CSR or certification request) is a message sent from an applicant to a certificate authority of the public key infrastructure (PKI) in order to apply for a digital identity certificate. The CSR usually contains the public key for which the certificate should be issued ...

  6. Certificate authority - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_authority

    Any site using self-signed certificates acts as its own CA. Commercial banks that issue EMV payment cards are governed by the EMV Certificate Authority, [ 5 ] payment schemes that route payment transactions initiated at Point of Sale Terminals ( POS ) to a Card Issuing Bank to transfer the funds from the card holder's bank account to the ...

  7. HTTP Strict Transport Security - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security

    A server implements an HSTS policy by supplying a header over an HTTPS connection (HSTS headers over HTTP are ignored). [1] For example, a server could send a header such that future requests to the domain for the next year (max-age is specified in seconds; 31,536,000 is equal to one non-leap year) use only HTTPS: Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000.

  8. GnuTLS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GnuTLS

    GnuTLS (/ ˈ ɡ n uː ˌ t iː ˌ ɛ l ˈ ɛ s /, the GNU Transport Layer Security Library) is a free software implementation of the TLS, SSL and DTLS protocols. It offers an application programming interface (API) for applications to enable secure communication over the network transport layer, as well as interfaces to access X.509, PKCS #12, OpenPGP and other structures.

  9. Root certificate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_certificate

    A root certificate is the top-most certificate of the tree, the private key which is used to "sign" other certificates. All certificates signed by the root certificate, with the "CA" field set to true, inherit the trustworthiness of the root certificate—a signature by a root certificate is somewhat analogous to "notarizing" identity in the ...
