| 9 | * The X.509 module provides X.509 support which includes: |
| 10 | * - X.509 certificate (CRT) reading (see \c x509parse_crt() and |
| 11 | * \c x509parse_crtfile()). |
| 12 | * - X.509 certificate revocation list (CRL) reading (see \c x509parse_crl() |
| 13 | * and\c x509parse_crlfile()). |
| 14 | * - X.509 (RSA) private key reading (see \c x509parse_key() and |
| 15 | * \c x509parse_keyfile()). |
| 16 | * - X.509 certificate signature verification (see \c x509parse_verify()) |
| 17 | * |
| 18 | * This module can be used to build a certificate authority (CA) chain and |
| 19 | * verify its signature. It is also used to get a (RSA) private key for signing |
| 20 | * and decryption. |
