Certificates
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
Overview
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
Import and store X.509 certificates within SEB Server is a new feature since SEB Server version 1.2. This allows an institutional administrator
|
||||
or an exam administrator to upload and store certificates for further use within SEB Server.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
Certificates uploaded to SEB Server are stored in a secured certificate-store that is stored within the data base rather then a
|
||||
usual file. The certificated store is password secured and only the binary data of the certificate store is places into the
|
||||
databease for securty reasons.
|
||||
|
||||
Once a certificate has been uploaded to SEB Server it can be used for various other features of SEB Server where a certificate is needed.
|
||||
One feature that also comes with the SEB Server version 1.2 is the ability to encrypt a connection configuration with a certificate
|
||||
that has the right purpose (Identity) to do so. If you need this feature already, please have a look at: :ref:`connection-configuration-label`
|
||||
Other planed features are the import of certificate encrypted exam configurations as well as to embed certificates within a exam configuration
|
||||
to allow certificate pinning between SEB and LMS.
|
||||
|
||||
There is currently certificate upload support for two version of certificates:
|
||||
|
||||
**PEM**
|
||||
|
||||
This are usually non password protected certificates in different file-formats. SEB Server currently supports the following PEM file-formats:
|
||||
|
||||
- .pem
|
||||
- .crt
|
||||
- .cer
|
||||
|
||||
**PKCS12**
|
||||
|
||||
This are usually password protected certificates in different file-formats. SEB Server currently supports the following PKCS12 file-formats:
|
||||
|
||||
- .p12
|
||||
- .pfx
