pki-ca - Certificate System - Certificate Authority

Description:

The Certificate Authority (CA) is a required PKI subsystem which issues,
renews, revokes, and publishes certificates as well as compiling and
publishing Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).

The Certificate Authority can be configured as a self-signing Certificate
Authority, where it is the root CA, or it can act as a subordinate CA,
where it obtains its own signing certificate from a public CA.

This package is a part of the PKI Core used by the Certificate System.
