Attest to third-party certifications
Synopsis
sq key attest-certifications [Options]
Description
Attest to third-party certifications allowing for their distribution.
To prevent certificate flooding attacks, modern key servers prevent uncontrolled distribution of third-party certifications on certificates. To allow the key holder to control what information is distributed with their certificate, these key servers only distribute third-party certifications that the key holder has explicitly approved.
After the attestation has been created, the certificate has to be distributed, e.g. by uploading it to a key server.
