 # Create a self-signed public certificate to authenticate your application
 
-Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) supports two types of authentication for service principals: **password-based authentication** (app secret) and **certificate-based authentication**. While app secrets can easily be created in the Azure portal, they're long-lived, and not as secure as certificates. It's therefore recommended that your application uses a certificate rather than a secret.

 For testing, you can use a self-signed public certificate instead of a Certificate Authority (CA)-signed certificate. In this how-to, you'll use Windows PowerShell to create and export a self-signed certificate.

 While creating the certificate using PowerShell, you can specify parameters like cryptographic and hash algorithms, certificate validity period, and domain name. The certificate can then be exported with or without its private key depending on your application needs. 
 
-The application that initiates the authentication session requires the private key while the application that confirms the authentication requires the public key. So, if you're authenticating from your PowerShell desktop app to Azure AD, you only export the public key (*.cer* file) and upload it to the Azure portal. The PowerShell app uses the private key from your local certificate store to initiate authentication and obtain access tokens for Microsoft Graph.

 This article uses the `New-SelfSignedCertificate` PowerShell cmdlet to create the self-signed certificate and the `Export-Certificate` cmdlet to export it to a location that is easily accessible. These cmdlets are built-in to modern versions of Windows (Windows 8.1 and greater, and Windows Server 2012R2 and greater). The self-signed certificate will have the following configuration:
