Question 2

What is a digital certificate?

Accepted Answer

A digital certificate is like an electronic identification card that is used in conjunction with a public key encryption system to verify the authenticity of the message sender.Trusted third parties known as certification authorities (CA s)(for example,Veri-Sign,Inc.)issue digital certificates,also called digital IDs.The digital certificate is actually the sender's public key that the CA has digitally signed.The digital certificate is transmitted with the encrypted message to authenticate the sender.
