CSR Generation for Weblogic (previous versions)

A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is a block of encoded text that is generated on the server where the certificate will be installed. It contains information that will be included in the certificate such as the organization name, common name (domain name), locality, and country. The CSR is then used to generate a signed digital certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA).

Weblogic is a Java-based application server from Oracle that is used to build, deploy, and manage enterprise applications and services. It is a popular choice for web applications and is used by many large companies. Weblogic is a secure platform, but it is important to ensure that the server is properly configured and that the correct security measures are in place.
