How to get a Salesforce generated certificate signed by a trusted CA
Hi all,
Is it actually possible to get the a certificate for Salesforce signed by verified trusted CA like Symantec, GlobalSign, etc.? I know that Salesforce supports generating certificates both for self signed and CA signing, and that documentation explains how this works in theory.
But when contacting speaking with CAs and reading their policies they state that in order to get the certificate signed the requestor must comply with validation procedures and checks to confirm the existence of the business, the ownership of the domain.
The problem as I see it is that noone other than Salesforce is the domain owner even if you have registered my domain in Salesforce.
How can it then be possible for anyone, except Salesforcem to have it signed when the certificate will reside in the Salesforce.com domain?
