Stands for: Certificate Signing Request

A signed request containing the public key and details for a certificate.

A Certificate Signing Request (PKCS #10) bundles the public key and subject information, signed by the requester's private key, and is submitted to a CA to obtain a certificate. ACME automates what once meant pasting a CSR into a web form.
