Security Settings: the next steps enable additional validation to be performed on the 3rd party credential.

  • Credential Linking Value: The value will be retrieved from the certificate and used to look up the applicant in the directory. This helps to ensure that the applicant is known and is already registered with the directory.

  • External Credential Issuing Certificate: This is the issuing certificate authority certificate that issued the 3rd party credential. It can be used as an additional trust anchor.
