Storing digital certificate in AWS Cloud HSM

Question

My use case is to store digital certificate (issued by some certificate authority) in AWS Cloud HSM. I know we can store private key that signs the certificate. But is it possible to store full digital certificate itself? Can someone please share the steps?

Answer 1

Unfortunately you cannot store digital certificate in CloudHSM device

Here are things what you can achieve with it

When you use an HSM from AWS CloudHSM, you can perform a variety of cryptographic tasks:

• Generate, store, import, export, and manage cryptographic keys, including symmetric keys and asymmetric key pairs.
• Use symmetric and asymmetric algorithms to encrypt and decrypt data.
• Use cryptographic hash functions to compute message digests and hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs).
• Cryptographically sign data (including code signing) and verify signatures.
• Generate cryptographically secure random data.
