Public keys are used as the encryption algorithm for security systems. For the validity of public keys,
certificates are issued by a Certificate Authority. The Certificate Authority certifies that the person or the entity is
authenticated and that the present public key belongs to that same person or entity. As the certificate contains
values such as the name of the owner, the validity period, the issuing authority, and a stamp with a signature of
the authority, it is seen as a digital pass. On this screen, you enter server certificate information, which the
MultiAccess needs to authenticate itself to your browser. After saving the settings, the browser’s security
information settings have to be cleared.
