AUTOMATICALLY OBTAINING A SIGNED DIGITAL CERTIFICATE FROM A TRUSTED CERTIFICATE AUTHORITY

摘要

Signed digital certificates can be automatically obtained from a trusted certificate authority. For example, a computing device can receive a request associated with a handshake procedure for establishing a secure session between a client device and a server. The request can indicate a trusted certificate authority that issues signed digital certificates. The computing device can determine that a local key store that is local to the server does not have a signed digital certificate issued by the trusted certificate authority and responsively obtain the signed digital certificate from the trusted certificate authority. The computing device can return the signed digital certificate back to the client device as part of the handshake procedure to establish the secure session.
