Context

• Typically, an Enterprise Certificate Authority operates via Client Certificates that are issued to a digital Identifier that is issued to an Entity that has some means to control access to a protected Private Key that is used for Authentication.
• The most common form of Authentication is via Client Certificates that bind the Entity Identifier with a Client Certificate that is used in a TCP connection using Mutual TLS to carry the proof of possession, not only of the key of the server, but also of the key of the Client.
