Final answer:

The question concerns methods of digital certificate distribution including via the issuing Certificate Authority, on a web site, to a file for export, and within a directory service such as Active Directory.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question references the different ways a digital certificate can be distributed. Distributing certificates can be done in various ways:

  • On the issuing CA (Certificate Authority), which is the entity that issued the certificate, and provides a source of validity.
  • To an Internet or intranet Web site, for facilitating secure communication with users visiting the site.
  • To a file, where the certificate can be exported and then imported or installed on other systems or applications as needed.
  • In a directory service such as Active Directory, which allows for central management and storage of certificates and other critical information.

The usage of certificates in these contexts is mainly for authentication, secure communication, and data integrity. Each method serves a particular function or use-case scenario.
