The arrival of the Internet information age not only brings convenience to people's life and work, but also brings a lot of hidden dangers of information security. When we shop online, socialize and other activities, the personal information we leave behind will sometimes be stolen and used by hackers, and may even fall into a fraud trap. Therefore, we need more secure and reliable access to information, so the CA certificate arises at the historic moment.

Many people confuse applying for a CA certificate with a SSL certificate. In fact, although the two are related, they are not the same concept. CA certificate, as its name implies, is a certificate issued by CA, a digital certificate authority, while SSL certificate is only one of the digital certificates issued by CA institutions, and it can also be said that SSL certificate is a kind of CA certificate.

What is the use of applying for a certificate by CA?

CA application certificate has five main functions: first, after applying for a CA certificate and successfully installing it, only the recipient can read the information, which is more confidential; second, the CA certificate has authentication function, which can confirm the identity of the sender of the information and prevent phishing websites; third, after loading the CA certificate, it can place the information from being tampered with by hackers at will, thus ensuring the integrity of the information transmission. Fourth, with the CA certificate, the sender can not deny the information that has been sent; fifth, the CA certificate can ensure the security of the data exchange between the information requester and the information sender.

Second, how to install after applying for a certificate?

Nowadays, many operating systems'CA certificates (mainly issued by well-known commercial certificate authorities such as VeriSign or GoDaddy) are installed by default. When devices need to trust unknown or local certificate authorities, they only need to install CA certificates.

There is no standard process for installing CA certificates due to the different types of CA certificates.

If the Windows server is configured as a CA certification authority, in general, administrators can install it through a Web interface (usually at the address of https:///CertSRV) to generate and download certificates.

If you are using the win8 operating system and the CA certificate is installed by the certificate console on the PC side, you can click the "run" function to enter CertLM.msc, visit the certificate store directly, and then download and install it.

If the CA certificate is installed on the mobile side, you can use your email to email the applied CA certificate to the email account of the mobile device, directly open the attachment, and the CA certificate will be installed automatically.
