A 3rd party API we're hoping to work with need a Client Certificate for authentication of our backend servers. However, contrary to (as I understand it) the general practice of using self signed certificates, they are asking for a certificate issued by a trusted CA.
I've gotten in touch with a few of the largest SSL certificate providers, and all but one of them has responded to my query so far.
The one that responded has quoted a price > USD 2K for what they call "PKI infrastructure" setup, and around $50 for each generated certificate. The $50 is fine, the $2K is too much IMHO.
Has anyone on HN dealt with such requirements before? If so, which certificate vendor did you end up using, and what was the approximate costing and general experience?
