Create two key pairs to signed certificates to establish trust between your protected
and trusted instances.
To establish trust between your instances, you must create a key pair and certificate for each of the cm_code_attest and cm_code_signing cryptographic modules.

Creating key pairs and certificates is done using a cryptographic tool installed on your local device, such as the OpenSSL tool. For more information on this tool, see <https://www.openssl.org>. If your organization uses other cryptographic tools, such as LibreSSL or GnuTLS, refer to the documentation for those products for similar steps.

## Key pair specifications {#create-key-pairs-and-certs__section_iyd_qzy_mzb}

The key pairs you create must meet these requirements.

|-|-|
| Type | RSA |
| Key length | 4096 |
| Signing algorithm | RSASSA_PKCS1_V1_5_SHA_512 |

## Certificate specifications {#create-key-pairs-and-certs__section_f22_rzy_mzb}

Certificates must be signed by a public certificate authority.
