Digital Certificate   

Digital Certificates serve as your identity in the digital world. Just as a passport or a driver's license is used to uniquely identify individuals in the physical world, digital certificates are used to identify entities in digital transactions. Based on Public Key Cryptography, these Digital Certificates associate every entity with a unique pair of credentials - the public key and the private key. Only the owner of a Digital Certificate has access to the private key and can use it to digitally sign and encrypt any digital information such as emails, forms, files etc.

TCS-CA provides a comprehensive suite of digital certificate services ranging from Personal Digital Certificates and SSL Certificates to Managed PKI Services for deployment.
