What is a CA used for ?
A CA is used to issue digital certificates and the directories are used to store policies and certificates.
Abbrev : CRL
Certificate Revocation List
What is a CRL ?
A CRL is a digitally signed list of unexpired certificates revoked by a CA.
What are Certificate Templates ?
Certificate templates give instructions to users about procedures for creating and submitting a valid certificate request. This is an essential part of an enterprise CA and enables an administrator to recognize, configure, and issue certificates that have been pre-configured for selected tasks.
Where are Certificate templates stored ?
Certificate templates are stored in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).

This enables them to be used by all CAs in a forest and ensures that the CAs have access to the current standard templates.
Benefits of using Certificate Templates ?
consistent application of the certificate policy across the forest.

There are default templates that can be used.
Default Certificate Templates Available are ?
Computer
Cross Certification Authority
Directory Email Replication
CEP Encryption
Code Signing
Domain Controller
Domain Controller Authentication
EFS Recovery Agent
How many versions of Certificate Templates are available ?
Version 1
Version 2
Version 3
Explain Version 1 certificate Template ?
Version 1certificate templates are available in a Windows Server 2000 PKI. When a CA is installed, these templates are created by default and cannot be removed or modified. However, you can create a duplicate copy of a version 1 template and change it to a modifiable version 2 or version 3 template.

Version 1 templates are supported by CAs configured for Windows Server 2000 and Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition, which only support version 1 templates.
Explain Version 2 certificate Template ?
Version 2 certificate templates enable you to customize the settings and permissions of a template based on your needs. These templates are only issued by Enterprise CAs installed on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition or higher.
Explain Version 2 certificate Template ?
Version 3 certificate templates enable an administrator to add the advanced Suite B cryptographic settings to their certificates. These settings contain advanced options for digital signatures, encryption, hashing, and key exchange. Administrators can only issue certificates based on version 3 certificate templates from CAs installed on Windows Server 2008 servers. These certificates can only be used on clients running Windows Server 2008 or Windows Vista.
Windows Server 2000 and Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition CAs support which version of certificate templates?
version 1
Windows Server 2003 Datacenter and Enterprise Edition CAs – support which version of certificate templates ?
versions 1 and 2
Windows Server 2008 CAs support which version of certificate templates ?
support for versions 1, 2, and 3
What are the permissions that you can assign to a certificate template ?
The permissions that you can assign to a certificate template are :

Full Control
Enroll
Autoenroll
Read
Write
Note : Windows Server 2008 enables key archival and recovery to prevent potential loss of data that can result from the loss of a key.
Note : This process enables a Key Recovery Agent (KRA) to retrieve private keys, original certificates, and public keys from a database.
Abbrev : KRA
Key Recovery Agent
Note : Enterprise CAs can archive a user's private key in their database when certificates are issued. These private keys are encrypted and stored by a CA.
Note :A private key can be recovered at a later time by using the private key archive.
How do you configure your environment for key archival ?
To configure your environment for key archival, you will need to

* configure a KRA certificate template and enroll the KRA for a KRA certificate

* enable key archival for a CA
How do you configure a KRA certificate template ?
you need to add the certificate template to a CA.


If the certificate is configured with Read and Enroll permissions, the new KRA can use the Certificates snap-in and the Certificate Import Wizard to create a KRA certificate.

If the certificate is configured with the Autoenroll permission, it will be issued automatically the next time the user logs on to the network
