How to Generate a CSR?"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here\u2019s everything you wanted to know about Certificate Signing Request (CSR)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CSR is an abbreviation for Certificate Signing Request, a very fundamental part of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). As implied in the name itself, a CSR is a request \u2013 a request to a certificate authority to sign a digital certificate. In simple terms, it\u2019s an application form to initiate your certification process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we all know, digital certificates such as SSL\/TLS certificates vouch for the identity of the party that they have been issued to. In hindsight, it&#8217;s not the certificate, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sslrenewals.com\/blog\/what-is-certificate-authority-why-it-matter-for-security-of-website\">certificate authority<\/a> (CA) behind the certificate that acts as a witness and vouchers for your credibility. To do that, the CA first must confirm that you are who you say you are and validate your information through different methods set by the CAB forum. That\u2019s where the CSR comes in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A CSR contains information such as Common Name, Organization Name, Organization Unit etcetera. A CSR will also have your Public Key. You must fill out these details carefully while generating your CSR as these details will be used to generate your certificate and verify your identity and legitimacy. One small mistake and you\u2019d have to do it all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you generate a CSR, your key pair \u2013 Private Key and Public Key \u2013 is also generated. Of course, the Private Key will not be used by the CA, but your Public Key is included in the CSR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let\u2019s understand the nuts and bolts of CSR.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sslrenewals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/csr-generation.jpg\" alt=\"CSR Generation\" class=\"wp-image-928\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sslrenewals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/csr-generation.jpg 650w, https:\/\/sslrenewals.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/csr-generation-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s there in a CSR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A CSR contains the following things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common Name: <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t get confused by its name. It\u2019s nothing but the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of your web server. FQDN is the name you enter in your browser (with or without www). Your Common Name MUST be the same as that name. If not, there will be a mismatch error and that\u2019s not good, Bob.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Organization Name<\/strong>: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This should be the legally registered name of your organization. If you have any suffixes such as LLC., Inc., and Corp, you must also include them. In the case of the DV certificate, just enter your name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Organization Unit: <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Division of your organization handling the certificate (i.e., IT department).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Locality: <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here, you should enter the city in which you are located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>State or Province:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The State\/Province where you or your organization is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Country: <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Select the country where you or your organization is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>E-mail: <\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The E-mail address where certificate files will be sent. It must be of your organization if you want OV or EV SSL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from these, there&#8217;s an option to select the Root Length and Signature Algorithm. Keep them as default if you don&#8217;t have any particular requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How exactly a CSR looks like?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prepare to be disappointed because a CSR looks nothing like you\u2019d have expected. It\u2019s basically a string of alphabets, numbers, and symbols that looks like a message from an alien species.
