Enhancing Security in Subscription-Based Entertainment Platforms through Public Key Infrastructure and Zero-Knowledge Proof

VeryCert is a unified certificate management system that simplifies issuing, managing, and revoking digital certificates. As cyber threats rise and IT environments grow complex, secure authentication is essential. VeryCert provides a user-friendly platform for creating and managing certificates, ensuring access control by issuing them only after payment. The process begins with a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) submitted upon payment completion, after which the certificate is issued. For example, a valid certificate allows access to platforms like Cinezo, confirming payment. Administrators can view pending requests, approve them using a default CA or OpenSSL, and manage issued certificates with expiry tracking and revocation options. By integrating secure, verifiable payment-based authentication, VeryCert enhances security, data integrity, and compliance with industry standards.
