EJBCA (formerly: Enterprise JavaBeans Certificate Authority) is a free software public key infrastructure (PKI) certificate authority software package maintained and sponsored by the Swedish for-profit company PrimeKey Solutions AB, which holds the copyright to most of the codebase, being a subsidiary for Keyfactor Inc. based in United States . The project's source code is available under the terms of the Lesser GNU General Public License (LGPL). The EJBCA software package is used to install a privately operated certificate authority, validation authority and registration authority. This is in contrast to commercial certificate, validation and/or authorities that are operated by a trusted third party. Since its inception EJBCA has been used as certificate authority software for different use cases, including eGovernment,[1] endpoint management,[2] research,[3][4][5] energy,[6] eIDAS,[7] telecom,[8] networking,[9] and for usage in SMEs.[10]
