PKCS #12: Personal Information Exchange Syntax v1.1
Abstract
PKCS #12 v1.1 describes a transfer syntax for personal identity
information, including private keys, certificates, miscellaneous
secrets, and extensions. Machines, applications, browsers, Internet
kiosks, and so on, that support this standard will allow a user to
import, export, and exercise a single set of personal identity
information. This standard supports direct transfer of personal
information under several privacy and integrity modes.
This document represents a republication of PKCS #12 v1.1 from RSA
Laboratories' Public Key Cryptography Standard (PKCS) series. By
publishing this RFC, change control is transferred to the IETF.
IESG Note
The IESG thanks RSA Laboratories for transferring change control to
the IETF. Enhancements to this specification that preserve backward
compatibility are expected in an upcoming IETF Standards Track
document.
