Docker CA

This is a CA created to sign client certificates and identify the docker command line client against the API.

It consists of the following files:

cacertfile.pem
cakey.pem

Public CA

To secure your SSL endpoints you usually have a SSL certificate provided by a public CA, like Verisign, Digicert, Comodo or your favorite SSL provider. This usually provides three files

ca.cert - additional certificates from the CA
cert.pem - the certificate
key.pem - the secret key of your cert

FiFo generates self signed certificates upon installation, they can be found in /var/db/fifo, they are however less secure and won't show as 'trusted' in browsers.
