|

|
<div><p>This topic provides information about creating application
|
||
|
|
definitions and how to manage an application's certificate assignment. You
|
||
|
|
can learn about defining CA trust lists that applications use as the basis
|
||
|
|
of accepting certificates for client authentication. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can use Digital Certificate Manager (DCM), to perform various management
|
||
|
|
tasks for SSL-enabled applications and object signing applications. For example,
|
||
|
|
you can manage which certificates your applications use for Secure Sockets
|
||
|
|
Layer (SSL) communications sessions. The application management tasks that
|
||
|
|
you can perform vary based on the type of application and the certificate
|
||
|
|
store in which you are working. You can manage applications from the *SYSTEM
|
||
|
|
or *OBJECTSIGNING certificate stores only.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>While most application management tasks that DCM provides are easy to understand,
|
||
|
|
a few of these tasks may not be familiar to you. For more information about
|
||
|
|
these tasks, review these topics: </p>

You must use Digital Certificate Manager (DCM) to assign a certificate to an application before the application can perform a secure function, such as establishing a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session or signing an object.</li>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzahumngcaapptrust.htm">Define a CA trust list for an application</a></strong><br />
|
||
|
|
Applications that support the use of certificates for client authentication during a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session must determine whether to accept a certificate as valid proof of identity. One of the criteria that an application uses for authenticating a certificate is whether the application trusts the Certificate Authority (CA) that issued the certificate.</li>
