Uploading Certificate
A certificate is a digital file that certifies the identity of the organization or products of the
organization. It is also used to establish your credentials for any web transactions. It contains
the organization name, a serial number, expiration date, a copy of the certificate-holder's
public key, and the digital signature of the certificate- issuing authority so that a recipient can
ensure that the certificate is real.
