### CVC certificates
Pico HSM manipulates CVC certificates and requests to minimize the storage of internal certificates.
### Attestation
### Attestation
Every generated key is attached to a certificate, signed by an external PKI to ensure that a particular key is effectively generated by this specific device.
### Import external private keys and certificates
It allows private key and certificates import via WKY or PKCS#12 files.[^2][^3]

Secure channel messages are secured with a certificate issued by an external PKI.
### Multiple key domains
Key domains are domains to store separate private/secret keys. Each domain is protected by a DKEK, independent from the other domains. Private/secret keys can be generated in different key domains to be used with separated DKEK.
Therefore, a single device may contain different domains with independent keys.
### Key usage counter
### Key usage counter
A key usage counter is a counter that is reduced by 1 everytime that the private/secret key is used for signing, decrypting, derivation, etc. When it reaches 0, the key is disabled and cannot be used anymore.
Key usage can also be used to perform and auditory and track the usage of a particular key.
