Certificates

This section discusses how to work with the certificates on the CAC.

  • Extract Certificates python cac_crypto.py -x test

  • Working with certs (Referenced from here).

  • Encrypt

$ openssl pkeyutl -encrypt -in -pubin -inkey [input public key] -out [output file]

  • Extract Public Key

$ openssl x509 -inform DER -pubkey -in [input certificate] > output.key

  • Example using certs:

    $ echo "Hello World!" > input.txt

    $ python cac_crypto.py -E -k test/cac/cac_pki_enc.pub -i input.txt -o input_encrypted.ssl
