Abstract
A process for creating and managing pairs of asymmetrical cryptographic keys and/or certificates associated with the pairs of keys, each pair of keys and associated certificates being intended for an object managed by a computer system. The process includes creating an individual request for creating and/or certifying at least one pair of keys for an object of the system that lacks a pair of keys or a certificate for its pair of keys.
