Certificate Security

Certificate security refers to the practices and protocols used to ensure the authenticity and integrity of digital certificates, which are used to verify the identity of entities and secure online communications. As the backbone of public key infrastructure (PKI), certificate security is crucial for protecting against cyber threats, such as man-in-the-middle attacks and identity spoofing, and is a key area of research for experts in cryptography, network security, and cybersecurity, who continually work to improve certificate issuance, management, and validation processes to safeguard online transactions and communications.
