You have an Azure IoT solution.

You plan to register an Azure loT Edge device by using X.509 self-signed certificates.

You need to provide the thumbprint for the primary and secondary certificates.

Solution: You generate a 96-hex character SHA384 hash for the certificates.

Does this meet the goal?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The solution does not meet the goal because the thumbprint for X.509 certificates is typically derived from a SHA1 hash, not a SHA384 hash. Therefore, generating a SHA384 hash instead of the required SHA1 hash results in an incorrect thumbprint, making option B the correct answer.
