1.6. Definitions and Acronyms[Content]

Certification authority (CA)
An authority trusted by one or more users to create and assign public key certificates. Optionally the CA may create the user's keys. The CA is responsible for the public key certificates during their whole lifetime, not just for issuing them.

CA certificate
A certificate for one CA's public key issued by another CA.

Certificate policy (CP)
A named set of rules that indicates the applicability of a certificate to a particular community or class of application with common security requirements. For example, a particular certificate policy might indicate applicability of a type of certificate to the authentication of electronic data interchange transactions for the trading of goods within a given price range.

Certification path
An ordered sequence of certificates that, together with the public key of the initial object in the path, can be processed to obtain that of the final object in the path.

Certification practice statement (CPS)
A statement of the practices that a certification authority employs in issuing certificates.

Certificate revocation list (CRL)
A time stamped list identifying revoked certificates, which is signed by a CA and made freely available in a public repository.

Issuing certification authority (issuing CA)
The CA that issues the certificate (see also Subject certification authority).

Public key certificate (PKC)
A data structure containing the public key of an end entity and some other information, which is digitally signed with the private key of the CA that issued it.

Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
The set of hardware, software, people, policies and procedures needed to create, manage, store, distribute, and revoke PKCs based on public key cryptography.

Registration authority (RA)
An entity that is responsible for identification and authentication of certificate subjects but that does not sign or issue certificates (i.e., an RA is delegated certain tasks on behalf of a CA). The term Local Registration Authority (LRA) is used elsewhere for the same concept.

Relying party
A recipient of a certificate who acts in reliance on that certificate or on digital signatures verified using that certificate. In this document, the terms "certificate user" and "relying party" are used interchangeably.

In the context of a particular CA-certificate, the subject CA is the CA whose public key is certified in the certificate.
