  • REQUESTING AND STORING CERTIFICATES FOR SECURE CONNECTION VALIDATION
    Publication number: 20140325232
    Abstract: A client system may be configured to request a certificate from a server system and store the certificate locally. The stored certificate may be used to later authenticate a secure connection between the client system and the server system. The secure connection validated by the stored certificate may be, for example, a secure sockets layer/transport layer security (SSL/TLS) connection.

  • Dynamic updating of trusted certificates and certificate revocation lists in a computing system
    Patent number: 8032742
    Abstract: This application generally describes techniques for dynamically updating trusted certificates and CRLs, generally referred to herein as certificate information. That is, techniques are described for updating trusted certificates and CRLs without terminating existing communication sessions. An exemplary method includes the steps of receiving an initial configuration that includes a trusted certificate authority, receiving certificate information that includes a certificate revocation list (CRL) and a first certificate from the trusted certificate authority, storing the certificate information in the configuration, initiating a communication session for an application, receiving an update to the certificate information, and updating the configuration to reflect the update to the certificate information without terminating the communication session.
