摘要:
A method and computer program to assign certificates/private keys to a token ( 130 ). This method and computer program allows a user ( 132 ) to access a certificate authority ( 110 ) and have certificates/private keys that are used for signature, encryption and role purposes generated and downloaded to the token ( 130 ). The use of secure communication lines and computers is not necessary since the token ( 132 ) contains a unique token ID and private key, while the certificate authority ( 110 ) contains the associated public key for the token ( 130 ). The certificate generated is wrapped in the public key and only the token ( 130 ), having the associated private key, may activate the certificate.
