Abstract
A method for distributing and installing a digital certificate is provided. In this method, an object is accessed. The object is used for requesting a new digital certificate from a remote server. The object comprises a request for the new digital certificate, validity scope information, and an address associated with a controlled access point through which the object is transmitted when requesting the new digital certificate. Thereafter, the object is sent to the remote server on a communication path that includes the controlled access point. Subsequently, the new digital certificate is received from the remote server after the remote server verifies the validity scope information and verifies that the object was transmitted through the address associated with the controlled access point.
