Throughout this course, we've been discussing three key players: Client, Server, and Certificate Authority. These three identities create what's known as a PKI, or a Public Key Infrastructure. Each element of a PKI serves a specific purpose:

Servers Need to prove their Identity
Clients Need to validate an Identity
Certificate Authority Governs the whole process by issuing identities (in the form of Certificates) to Servers.

Most of us are familiar with the public web PKI, these are the Client/Server/CAs that secure every HTTPS website on the Internet. But there are other PKIs that exist, like Code signing PKIs, or even Internal website PKIs.

This lesson is a free sample lesson from the the greatest TLS and SSL training course ever created. No instructor rambling on about pointless stories. No slides with massive walls of text. No time wasting. Only simple, effective, and precise explanations. Complimented with practical illustrations and visuals.
