Manage Client Certificates

Azure Application Client Certificates are cryptographic credentials that authenticate client applications within the Microsoft Azure ecosystem. These certificates adhere to the X.509 standard and play a vital role in securing access to various Azure services, including APIs and server-to-server communications. They offer a highly secure alternative to client secrets, enabling more stringent identity verification. As an application owner, EmpowerID allows you to easily manage your client certificates without having to interact directly with Azure.
