CA ArcotID PKI Client Reference Guide › Introduction

Introduction

This guide is designed to be a reference manual for you as you create custom applications that use CA ArcotID PKI Client for authentication and digital signatures.

This chapter discusses the following topics:

• ArcotID PKI and ArcotID PKI Client
• Features and Usage Scenarios
• ArcotID PKI Client Types
• Summary of Capabilities

Note: CA ArcotID PKI Client still contains the terms Arcot, WebFort, and ArcotID in some of its code objects and other artifacts. Therefore, you will find occurrences of Arcot, WebFort, and ArcotID in all CA ArcotID PKI Client documentation. In addition, some of the topics in this guide do not follow the standard formatting guidelines. These inconsistencies will be fixed in a future release.
