VeriSign® Processing Center is a PKI Service
Platform for VeriSign affiliates to resell PKI services in regions where
VeriSign does not offer service. As an affiliate, you have the freedom
to operate all aspects of the PKI service business, and the Processing

Offer a Feature Rich, Managed Solution
Your customers can establish a robust PKI and
certificate authority (CA) system without the cost and time-to-market
burden of in-house PKI deployment. You can operate a highly secure
and scalable PKI service and provide a flexible credentialing platform
for complete management of digital certificates (issue, revoke, key
escrow, view status) in accordance with industry best practices and
VeriSign standards.
How the Processing Center Works
The Processing Center functions as a primary
CA to provide a full range of CA services to the affiliate and its customers.
As an affiliate, you control the secure facility, the hardware and underlying
system software that make up the physical components of the Processing
Center, as well as hire trusted employees. VeriSign provides a license
to affiliates to utilize the proprietary software platform.
