CERTIFICATE MANAGEMENT AND TRANSFER SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a certificate management and transfer mechanism for simplifying certificate management and loading between messaging clients.

SOLUTION: A method and system for certificate management and transfer between messaging clients are disclosed. When communications are established between a first messaging client and a second messaging client, one or more certificates stored by the first messaging client may be selected and transferred to the second messaging client. Messaging clients may thereby share certificates. Certificates management functions such as certificate deletions, certificate updates and certificate status checks may also be provided.
