Public-key cryptography uses two keys: a public key, which is stored inside a certificate that can be shared with other users, and a private key, which you don't share with others. The public key (certificate) is used to encrypt documents or to verify digital signatures, and the private key is used to decrypt documents or to create digital signatures. Both keys are included in a digital ID.
