Patent attributes
Scalable certificate management system architectures. An example system may include one or more application platforms (e.g., VMs) that run a registration authority and are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the registration authority. The system may also include one or more application platforms that run an enrollment certificate authority and that are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the enrollment certificate authority. It may further include one or more application platforms that run a pseudonym certificate authority and that are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the pseudonym certificate authority. It may also include one or more application platforms that run first and second linkage authorities and that are communicatively connected to one or more compute engines that perform cryptographic computations required by the linkage authorities.
