ABSTRACT:
Secure transmission of data is provided between a plurality of computer systems over a public communication system, such as the Internet. Secure transmission of data is provided from a party in communication with a first application resident on a first computer which is in communication with a second computer with a certification authority application resident thereon. The second computer is in communication with a third computer utilizing an administrative function resident thereon. The first, second and third computers are connected by a network, such as the Internet. A name-value pair for certification processing is created on said first computer and transmitted to an administrative function on the third computer. Then, the name-value pair is routed to the appropriate certification authority on the second computer. The administrative function also transmits other certification information from said administrative function to said certification authority on the second computer. Until, finally, a certificate is created comprising the name-value pair and the other certification information on the second computer. The certificate is utilized for authenticating identity of the party.
