Difference b/w OCA certifciate and verisign certificate

What is the difference b/w OCA certifciate and verisign certificate
Do we need to buy the OCA certificate as well as I understand that we need to buy verisign certificate?
Thanks

A certificate is not a single entity. It helps if you know how to administer certificates using the openssl commandline tool. A certificate is a signed public key.
This is how it works in using the oracle tools:
First, a wallet is created using the wallet manager (owm) or orapki. A wallet at that point consists of some trusted CA (Certificate Authority) certificates, and probably already the (non visible) private key.
Next, a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) is made using the wallet manager or orapki. This is a non-signed version of the certificate.
This is where the OCA comes into play. The OCA is the oracle version of a Certificate Authority. Using the CA, you can sign your certificate yourself. The signer certificate (the certificate of the OCA) is not officially listed as trusted certificate.
If you send your CSR to verisign, verisign signs it for you. The advantage verisign has, is it's certificate (the signer certificate) is officially listed as trusted certificate. That's the reason people use verisign for their certificates.

  • Differences between OCA 10g and OCA 11g

    Hi,
    I am currently studying the OCA 10g Administration I but I have not taken the exam yet. I am also taking the SQL Expert exam but I dont think that is version specific.
    I would like to know how different or what the differences are between the OCA 10g and 11g exams are as I fear that 10g will be out of date soon. I am considering just taking the 11g exam even though I have only studied 10g.
    I had a look at both the syllabuses and they look pretty similar and was hoping someone could add some personal notations of their experience. I suspect and hope that the major differences would come at the OCP level.
    I don't want to go to do OCP as I am only doing to obtain a good foundation for working on the functional side of financials.
    Thanks in advance.
    Luke

    differences are between the OCA 10g and 11g exams
    Different version different new features discussed. example : no ADR in the 10g, no invisible index in 10g, DRA etc.
    Syllabus maybe the same, but features is different.
    I suspect and hope that the major differences would come at the OCP level.
    OCP is deeper than OCA. mostly OCA cover all features of the Oracle, and the OCP discussed about more advanced technique like RMAN, ASM, Memory Management, etc. but again 10g and 11g have different features.
    That's why for 10g OCP who wants to upgrade become 11g OCP, has to follow 11g new features exam.

  • Difference between C_TSCM44_65  and  C_TSCM44_05 certificate

    Hi,
    Can you please let me know what is the main difference between C_TSCM44_65  and C_TSCM44_05 certificates. I understand one is for SCM 5.0(DP/SNP/PPDS) and another is for SCM 7.1(PP,SNP,PPDS,GATP) with the addition of GATP. Is there any other major difference.
    In short ,if one were to do a certification, which one would you suggest.
    Regards,
    Shankar

    Hello ShaikhMurad,
    Actually, From my point of view;
    C_TPLM30_65 : The newest SAP Certification at EAM is designed for entry- level consultants that's why
    (1) All the certification about how to describe?Maintain?Customize?
    (2) Don't consider some of important integration points such as: Processing External Services, all cost topics (Cost Estimation, Order Settlement, Planned/Actual Cost Determination, Plant Maintenance in the Organizational Structures of Accounting) and Capacity Planning unlike C_TPLM30_05
    The advantage of this certification "C_TPLM30_65", It covers most of enhancements points related to PLM from EhP 1 : EhP 5 unlike C_TPLM30_05 which covers ONLY ECC 6.0
    Hope this note helps.

  • What is difference bwtween OCP,OCA, and OCM?

    what is difference bwtween OCP,OCA, and OCM?
    which is the highest level in the same database version?
    Thanks

    Oracle Certified Master (OCM) is the highest level Oracle certification. The OCM requires an OCP as well as hands on test and Oracle training requirements.
    Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) is the next highest. OCP requires two or more tests and an Oracle training requirement.
    Oracle Certified Associate is the entry level certification. Requires two or more tests and no Oracle training requirement.

  • VeriSign Certificate  OR Unified Testing Initiative (UTI) root Certificate?

    Hello everybody!
    I've signed my J2ME application with a Verisign Class 3 Public Primary CA but it seems that wasn't a good deal!
    Indeed, once signed, this application no longer is supported by my Samsung SGH-D840 even if on a Nokia6300 all still run well.
    The difference between these 2 handsets regarding the signing aspects is that the SGH-D840 is not JSR-177 SATSA compatible whereas the Nokia6300 is.
    A friend told me that the Unified Testing Initiative (UTI) root certificate is available on more handsets than the VeriSign certificate. He seems be right because all the handsets marked with a (+) in the list at [http://www.javaverified.com/docs/Table_of_Supported_Devices_1.20.pdf|http://www.javaverified.com/docs/Table_of_Supported_Devices_1.20.pdf] support the UTI Certificate.
    My questions:
    1) Has anyone ever used the UTI certificate to sign a J2ME application? If yes, could the person tell me if he recommend it instead of VeriSign Certificate?
    2) Could you confirm if UTI certificate is supported by many more handsets (regardless to the manufacturer) in relationship with VeriSign Certificate?
    Thanks you in advance,

    Finally solved it
    Followed the instructions of note 694290 to import the certificate chain
    Essentially, I needed to export the already existing private key to a .p8 file named exactly after the already existing private key entry. Then, I delete the private key entry and  hit Load, put the .p8 file I just exported and then import my certificate file (CSR response), the intermediate CA certificate and the root CA certificate

  • Can not import Verisign certificate

    Dear all,
    I am trying to import a Verisign certificate in my ABAP BW 3.5
    Production system.This is a certificate renewal as I had a certificate there for a year that is to expire on the 12th of June. However, because of the fact that we had to change the SSL
    PSE so that it contains field SP, it is more like installing a new
    certificate.
    What I did: I deleted the old PSE that didn't have any information about the "State" field and created a new one.
    I then created the CSR request to Verisign. I received
    the response from Verisign, which I pasted in a text file together with the Verisign Intermediate and Verisign Root certificate which I used last year as well when I installed a Verisign certificate in this server for the first time.
    When I apply the response, by pasting the contents of the text
    file created above, I get the message:
    "CA Certificate missing in database"
    I have already looked at notes 508307, 518185, 510007, 1074447, 511919
    I am sure that the Verisign root and Intermediate certificates are ok because I have used them successfully in the past in the same server and recently to create the certificate chain for other system certificates of my EP 6.0 landscape.
    I am also sure that the Verisign CA root certificate exists in the
    database, I checked table STRUSTCERT and it is there. Also, if it didn't exist, I wouldn't have been able to import the Verisign certificate last year
    I haven't restarted ICM so the previous certificate still works. After the 12th of June though it will expire and all funtionality based on HTTPS in BW will not work.
    Many thanks in advance for your help
    Regards
    Andreas

    Just created a new SSL PSE and imported the certificate chain again and this time it worked...

  • Signing in mail with a verisign certificate

    I have 2 certificates bought from Verisign that I used previously under 10.6.
    I made a clean install of 10.6 and then updated to 10.7, but even if I managed to import the certificates in the keychain access, the buttons in mail proposing the signature and encryption of emails doesn't appear.
    Thank you in advance for your help

    I haven't been able to resolve this issue using Mail and a Verisign certificate. So instead I tried Comodo and my Mail system now works perfectly with both signature and encryption. So perhaps the problem lies with Verisign rather than Apple......
    And Comodo is free, see http://www.instantssl.com/ssl-certificate-products/free-email-certificate.html

  • How can I get an up to date Verisign certificate??

    For an app I need the Verisign certificate. I downloaded one from a link provided in this forum but once installed I see it valid until "15-07-2009" -- no good for me, I'm in August.
    Trawling the Verisign site didn't help ease the frustration.
    Any pointers? 
    It's a VeriSign Class 3 Code Signing Certificate. I've already updated the Nokia firmware to the latest version. 

    I can't seem to find any other place to put this but here.
    I have the same exact issue as the person who started this thread.
    I have a valid VeriSign Class 3 code signing certificate and when trying to do a OTA for a E63 phone the message shows "certificate not recognizable".
    VeriSign blames Nokia.
    What can I do for this?

  • Verisign Certificates renewal Issue

    Hi
    We are running Sun Java Web Server 7.0 update 5 and wanted to renew verisign certificates for 2 more years.
    What i did:
    1. Got the certificates from Verisign with last year CSR (i'm not sure if previous CSR can be used or not)
    2. Using admin console (browser based) , i went to "server certificates" ->"install" and could successfully installed them (but there was a warning that duplicate nick name) and i selected ls2 (listener-2 for https)
    3. admin console shows renewal successful and expiry year is 2011.
    4. I also restarted both admin and web services
    But the problem that when i access the application from browser, it still says the expiry year as 2009.
    Please advise.
    Prvn

    Well ... I don't know WHICH three *db files you copied, or from where you copied them in the admin-serv directory.
    If the admin server appears to be working as expected, and the instance appears to be working as expected, then just make sure the admin server isn't telling you that changes have been made on the instance (if it is then tell it to copy the changes and make them the new current version).
    Depending on which files you copied from where you may end up with the admin server having the wrong certificates. This could cause a problem for any nodes that are registered with it. I think you'd already see a problem if this were going to break things though.
    In a perfect world everything is just working as expected now, and you're done. If you want to be extra cautious, though, you should restore the admin server's key3 and cert8 databases from a backup (these databases contain the self-signed certificate and its associated keys that were created when you installed Web Server).

  • Installing verisign certificates

    Hi
    I have two load-balanced portal gateways , and I need to install a Verisign certificate on them.
    The question is: Do i have to create a csr request for each server and ask for separate certificates (obviously registering the same fqdn host name)??
    thanks a lot

    If your gateways have different hostnames, you have to get a separate certificate for each host. Otherwise, you will get a certificate mismatch error. If your gateways share the same hostname in a load balancing environment, one certificate can serve both servers. There may be licensing issues with this depending on your Certificate provider.
    To accomplish this task, create your CSR on gateway1, get it signed and install it. After gateway1 is complete, copy all the files in /etc/opt/SUNWps/cert/<profilename> from gateway1 to gateway2. Don�t forget the .files.

  • Importing Verisign Certificate on PIX7.1

    Hi there,
    After having importet Verisign Intermediate CA onto my PIX, I've send the CSR request to Verisign and gotten a Certificate back. Now when I try to import the returned certificate on the PIX, I get an error :
    Failed to parse or verify imported certificate
    Now, I've tried clearing all certs, reauthenticate the CA etc.
    Any ideas?
    Is it a problem that the CA is Intermediate? Can the CSR attributes contain spaces?
    Pix is running latest version 7
    Kind regards
    Kelvin Dam

    Hi koksm,
    Yeah - I got it to work. I dont know how many of these steps you have done, but heres how I did it :
    RSA-keys are probably already generated (also needed for ssh-access), but if you ever need to reissue the cert, regenerate the rsa keys, otherwise the CSR will be exactly the same and not accepted by the 3rd party CA:
    crypto key generate rsa
    Then define the trustpoint:
    crypto ca trustpoint Verisign
    crl optional
    enrollment terminal
    subject-name CN=host.domain.com,OU=Unit,O=Organisation,C=NL,St=xxx,L=xxx,[email protected]
    Import root CA cert (make sure you have the correct one, preferably without intermediate CA (RA)):
    crypto ca authenticate Verisign
    ---BEGIN--- or ---END--- lines do not matter>
    quit
    INFO: Certificate has the following attributes:
    Fingerprint: 069f6979 16669002 1b8c8ca2 c3076f3a
    Do you accept this certificate? [yes/no]: yes
    Trustpoint CA certificate accepted.
    Generate the CSR:
    crypto ca enroll Verisign
    % Start certificate enrollment ..
    % The subject name in the certificate will be: xxxx
    % The fully-qualified domain name in the certificate will be: hostname.domain.com
    % Include the device serial number in the subject name? [yes/no]: no
    Display Certificate Request to terminal? [yes/no]: yes
    Certificate Request follows:
    MIICNjCCAZ8CAQAwgbwxJTAjBgkqhkiG9w0BCQEWFnNlcnZpY2VkZXNrQGR5bm9t
    aWMubmwxEjAQBgNVBAcTCUJpbHRob3ZlbjEQMA4GA1UECBMHVXRyZWNodDELMAkG
    ---End - This line not part of the certificate request---
    Redisplay enrollment request? [yes/no]: no
    Notice this is generate without ---BEGIN--- and ---END--- lines which you do need to add when submitting the form to the 3rd party CA.
    After succesful verification by the CA you'll be returned a certificate which you can import with or without the ---BEGIN--- and ---END---- lines, so you might as well just copy the complete text:
    crypto ca import Verisign certificate
    % The fully-qualified domain name in the certificate will be: xxx.domain.com
    Enter the base 64 encoded certificate.
    End with the word "quit" on a line by itself
    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
    MIIDcTCCAtqgAwIBAgIQIHOwJ7acK6Fmibyhf67HlDANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADC
    MXN/DqZw504SdlIkm3K4Dt7kSa5NILlncBiPhJJPJRjcOk6wRB6vuGG85uz6twR
    nq4BqbMitzpgxvK12hgS9ZDy62kC
    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
    quit
    INFO: Certificate successfully imported
    Make sure you activitate the trustpoint either as for use on all interfaces or on a specific interface using:
    ssl trust-point thawte.com [interface]
    One more thing - the verisign root cert, I did NOT get from their webpage, but I took the one that accompanies the Internet Explorer.

    Ede

    I would assume that there are not that many certificates still
    being used that use those CA certs for their CA.
    As you probably noticed, there are a bunch of newer Verisign
    CA certs in that trust store (cacerts). The newer CA certs are
    probably the ones being used by certificates that are currently
    in use.
    I suppose you have to ship the older CA certs until they become
    invalid. I doubt that Verisign issued any certificates with those
    old CA anytime recently.
