Application Scenarios
Authenticating Websites
An SSL certificate validates the identity of a website on the Internet. If a website is not installed with an SSL certificate, the browser considers the website as insecure so that the website is hardly trusted by users and have few visitors. Visitors are more likely to explore a website secured with an SSL certificate because they believe the website is secure enough. Especially the websites that use OV or EV certificates, the CA validates the domain name ownership and enterprise identity before issuing a certificate, which effectively improves the website credibility.
Website Data Encryption
The data transmitted over HTTP always faces high risks of being disclosed, eavesdropped, or tampered with as HTTP cannot encrypt data in transit. SSL certificates covert your HTTP website to an HTTPS one. An HTTPS-secured website enables encrypted communication and effectively improves data transmission security.
Accelerating Website Loading Speed
SSL certificates are compatible with HTTP/2 and can be used to quickly and dynamically load web page content.
Internal Application Data Security Control
You can use PCA to establish an internal certificate management system for your enterprise and issue and manage self-signed private certificates to authenticate identities, encrypt and decrypt data, and secure data transmission within the enterprise.
IoV
Telematics Service Providers (TSPs) can use PCA to issue a certificate to each vehicle terminal, thereby providing security capabilities such as authentication and encryption during vehicle-vehicle, vehicle-cloud, and vehicle-road interaction.
IoT
The Internet of Things (IoT) platform can use PCA to issue a certificate to each IoT device to implement IoT device identity verification and authentication, ensuring device access security in IoT scenarios.
