A digital certificate is a way to electronically authenticate the identity of an organization or individual. It is a digital file that contains information about the identity of the certificate holder and is issued by a trusted third party known as a certificate authority (CA). The certificate is used to verify the identity of the certificate holder when communicating over a network, such as the internet. It is commonly used in secure websites (HTTPS), email encryption and digital signatures, and other secure online transactions.
