This view has four tabs:
- User Key Store contains the root, server, client and intermediate certificates you create.
- System Trust Store contains the trusted, third-party, client certificates that commonly secure Internet servers.
- User Trust Store contains the trusted client certificates your company created to serve as its own Certificate Authority.
- Allowed Hosts contains approved self-signed certificates. These are certificates that you or someone else in your company knows to be secure certificates that can be used to encrypt data. These certificates cannot be used to authenticate a server because no root CA certificate in the System Trust Store or User Trust Store has signed them.
A separate topic documents each tab.
