Open Source Implementations
There exist several open source implementations of certificate authority software. Common to all is that they provide the necessary services to issue, revoke and manage digital certificates.
Some open source implementations are:
- EJBCA
- OpenCA
- OpenSSL, which is really an SSL/TLS library, but comes with tools allowing its use as a simple certificate authority.
- gnoMint
- DogTag
- XCA

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or source:
“I have passed down the river before sunrise on a summer morning, between fields of lilies still shut in sleep; and when, at length, the flakes of sunlight from over the bank fell on the surface of the water, whole fields of white blossoms seemed to flash open before me, as I floated along, like the unfolding of a banner, so sensible is this flower to the influence of the sun’s rays.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It is thus tolerance that is the source of peace, and intolerance that is the source of disorder and squabbling.”
—Pierre Bayle (1647–1706)
