SimpleAuthority is a Certification Authority, or Certificate Authority (CA), that is designed to be very easy to use.

- VPN access – to provide a much higher level of security than username/password access
- client SSL authentication – to control access to an online service such as a subversion repository or wiki

- code signing – including Java archives, Windows executables, etc.
