Abstract

See full text

A certificate issuing apparatus and method creates a new certificate of a differing format from an existing certificate format to facilitate certificate conversion. A certificate converting unit receives first certificate data in a first format and desired certificate format criteria data, such as data representing the format of a certificate to which the first certificate is to be converted. The apparatus and method then generates second certificate data in a second format in response to the desired certificate format criteria data. In one embodiment, this is done using certificate format template data, such as templates representing the format and/or syntax of a plurality of differing certificate formats. The format template data is then mapped so that information from one certificate can be suitably mapped and then placed in a proper format and syntax for a different certificate format.
