Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services

Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) is a technology that issues and manages digital certificates within an organization. These certificates function like electronic IDs, securely verifying the identities of users, computers, and services. AD CS enables secure communication, authentication, and data encryption by issuing, renewing, and revoking digital certificates. Essentially, it creates a trusted environment, ensuring that digital interactions are legitimate and protected against unauthorized access, helping organizations maintain security and trust in their networked systems.
