Question #: 16
Topic #: 1
If the Issuer and Subject values are the same in a digital certificate, to which type of entity was the certificate issued?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

If the Issuer and Subject values are the same in a digital certificate, it typically indicates that the certificate is a self-signed certificate.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
B. A root CA (Certificate Authority)
A self-signed certificate is one where the entity that issued the certificate is also the entity identified by the certificate. In the context of a Certificate Authority (CA), this is often referred to as a root CA certificate. Root CA certificates are at the top of the certificate hierarchy and are used to sign other certificates, creating a chain of trust in a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI).
