Certificates: Advantages for COPA Purposes

• Assurances – Validation methods can be varied to satisfy diverse policy requirements

  • Enforce “highly granular” and multiple policies
  • An unlimited number of possible validation suites
  • Joining multiple methods can heighten assurances
  • A balance of assurances, costs, and user experience

• Frequency – Validation need only be performed once, then certificates trusted for an infinite number of transactions/accesses
