Basic Knowledge
Difference Between PEM and DER
PEM is a text format certificate format that begins with "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----" and is the most widely used. DER stores the same content in binary format and is mainly used in Java-based and Windows-based systems.
What is PFX (PKCS#12)?
PFX is a format that combines a certificate, private key, and intermediate certificate into a single file and protects it with a password. It is used for installation on IIS and for certificate portability and backup.
