The first step in working with asymmetric key pairs is to generate a private key. Of content (between the first and last line) is 64 characters long, except for the last one which may be shorter. To be able to send the binary data via mail, pem is Base64 encoded. It was created to format various (binary)ĭata, including keys or certificates. “.pem” stands for “ privacy enhanced mail” and dates back to the 1990s. Private/public key pair.pem The File Format Hence, this article is structured to highlight the steps needed to create the keys of an asymmetric Meant to be a complete list of file formats, but just the first article of a miniseries about JWT. In this article, I want to explain some file formats used to hold cryptographic keys and certificates.
