The Challenge: The complexity of creating and maintaining a PAA

All Matter devices are required to use an attestation keypair and an X.509 certificate signed by a Trusted Certificate Authority (CA) called also Product Attestation Authority (PAA). That means the first step in obtaining Matter compliance—and shipping Matter-certified devices—is to obtain a Matter-trusted device attestation certificate for each device. Becoming a trusted PAA is no small task.
