Certificate-based authentication and single sign-on procedures provide a high level of security for applications with highly sensitive company data. Procedures for reliable trust relationship management, such as authentication delegation, single sign-on, and impersonation have become practically indispensable, bridging the security gap between users, systems, and applications. A reliable trust center, the core of public-key infrastructures, issues digital certificates, tying a digital identity to the user.
