The permissioning service
A permissioning service is used to provision TLS certificates for security. In order to participate in the network, participants are required to have a signed identity issued by a root certificate authority. Identities are required to be unique on the network and the permissioning service is used to sign these identities. The naming convention used to recognize participants is based on the X.500 standard. This ensures the uniqueness of the name.
