Create a New Virtual ID Profile

Virtual ID profiles are used to virtually manage SigningHub users and their certificates. SigningHub supports the CSP virtual ID profile.

A CSP profile identifies the ADSS CSP Service (Cryptographic Service Provider) profile that is used to define the format and characteristics of the user password policy and signing services settings. It provides the required API interfaces to manage users, certificates, signing request handling & getting the signed hash (i.e. PKCS#1 signature) and their current statuses.

Based on the business requirements, you can manage (Add, Edit, and Delete) multiple virtual ID profiles to offer different types of CSP services to your SigningHub Desktop Web users.
