Types

type DER

type DER []byte

DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) is a binary encoding for X.509 certificates and private keys. Unlike PEM, DER-encoded files do not contain plain text statements such as -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----. DER files are most commonly seen in Java contexts. DER-encoded files are usually found with the extensions .der and .cer.

type PEM

type PEM []byte

PEM (originally “Privacy Enhanced Mail”) is the most common format for X.509 certificates, CSRs, and cryptographic keys. A PEM file is a text file containing one or more items in Base64 ASCII encoding, each with plain-text headers and footers (e.g. -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and -----END CERTIFICATE-----). A single PEM file could contain an end-entity certificate, a private key, or multiple certificates forming a complete chain of trust. PEM files are usually seen with the extensions .crt, .pem, .cer, and .key (for private keys), but you may also see them with different extensions. For example, the SSL.com CA bundle file available from the download table in a certificate order has the extension .ca-bundle.
