So an EV certificate for machine to machine communication where self managed PKI would be better due to having a single CA that could “know the customer” and possibly sending the private key in a password protected PDF?

Did I misread that? Technically is sounds terrible.




I was tired, I think I might have said the wrong thing. They call it a "business certificate" or "enterprise certificate", and for a moment I thought that was EV.

There's one other they (the gov't auth provider) accepts as CA for this, though they claim others will follow.
