CertificateFirst steps with a certificate on a smart card

Dear Client,
thank you for expressing your confidence in us. Congratulations on gaining your certificate.
What is a personal certificate
A certificate stored on a smart card – the file with the certificate is stored on a smart card.
Access to the certificate is protected with a PIN and the certificate is valid for 2 years (with
the possibility of free renewal of validity). An advantage of this method of storage is that
the certificate cannot be copied from the smart card in any manner. Thus, unless the smart
card and PIN are physically lost, misuse of the certificate is impossible. To use a certificate on
a smart card, you need to have a card reader and install support software on your PC.
