Establishing issuance policies

An issuance policy describes the conditions under which a certificate is issued. This provides a level of assurance that the subject's certificate request was verified in a specific way.

One or more issuance policies may be selected for a certificate template. Because these issuance policies are simply text labels with an associated object identifier, there are no options associated with them. The only special issuance policy is All issuance policies, which indicates that this policy includes all others. This is normally reserved for certificates held by certification authorities.
