S/MIME certificates'

Overview:

S/MIME stands for ‘Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions’. It is a standards-based method of public/private key encryption. S/MIME is based on asymmetric cryptography it is commonly used for email and MIME data. S/MIME enables email security features by providing encryption, authentication, message integrity and other related services. It ensures that an email message is sent by a legitimate sender and provides encryption for incoming and outgoing messages. To enable S/MIME based communication, the sender and receiver must be integrated with public key and signatures issued from a certificate authority (CA). We're not going to go into great detail on what S/MIME is here, so please feel free to read the Wikipedia article for more background
