Certificate Policy
A specialized form of administrative policy tuned to electronic transactions performed during certificate management. A Certificate Policy addresses all aspects associated with the generation, production, distribution, accounting, compromise recovery, and administration of digital certificates.
Indirectly, a certificate policy can also govern the transactions conducted using a communications system protected by a certificate-based security system.
By controlling critical certificate extensions, such policies and associated enforcement technology can support provision of the security services required by particular applications.
