Was bedeutet CA?

Das International Software Architecture Qualification Board  (ISAQB) definiert den Begriff “CA” wie folgt:

Unter CA versteht man

A Certificate Authority issues digital certificates to a given subjec
in a PKI. Usually there is a trust established to this authorit
which results in the same trust level to the issued certificates.

An example is the widely used TLS-PKI where every browser includes th
root-certificates of a defined list of CAs. These CAs then check the identit
of a given internet domain owner and digitally sign his certificate for the us
with TLS.
