{{Short description|Test for a valid public key certificate}}
The '''certification path validation algorithm''' is the [[algorithm]] which verifies that a given '''certificate path''' is valid under a given [[public key infrastructure]] (PKI). A path starts with the Subject certificate and proceeds through a number of intermediate certificates up to a trusted [[root certificate]], typically issued by a trusted [[certificate authority]] (CA).
