Class CIM_PublicKeyCertificate
extends CIM_SignedCredential

A PublicKeyCertificate is a credential that is cryptographically signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) and issued to an authenticated entity (e.g., human user, service, etc.) called the Subject in the certificate. The public key in the certificate is cryptographically related to a private key that is held and kept private by the authenticated Subject. The certificate and its related private key can then be used for establishing trust relationships and securing communications with the Subject. Refer to the ITU/CCITT X.509 standard as an example of such certificates.
