2. OpenSSL - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSL

   OpenSSL is a software library for applications that provide secure communications over computer networks against eavesdropping, and identify the party at the other end. It is widely used by Internet servers, including the majority of HTTPS websites. OpenSSL contains an open-source implementation of the SSL and TLS protocols.

3. PKCS 11 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS_11

   Most commercial certificate authority (CA) software uses PKCS #11 to access the CA signing key [clarification needed] or to enroll user certificates. Cross-platform software that needs to use smart cards uses PKCS #11, such as Mozilla Firefox and OpenSSL (using an extension).

4. Certificate signing request - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certificate_signing_request

   The signature constitutes a self-signature with the key pair of the applicant. Due to the self-signature requirement, this format is applicable only to types of keys that support signing. Yet there are variants of this format that do not include an actual signature, such as described in Appendix C.1 of RFC 5272 .

5. Cryptographic Message Syntax - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_Message_Syntax

   CMS is used as the key cryptographic component of many other cryptographic standards, such as S/MIME, PKCS #12 and the RFC 3161 digital timestamping protocol. OpenSSL is open source software that can encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify, compress and uncompress CMS documents, using the openssl-cms command.

6. PKCS 7 - Wikipedia

   .p7r – response to CSR. Contains the newly-signed certificate, and the CA's own cert..p7s - Digital Signature. May contain the original signed file or message. Used in S/MIME for email signing.

7. Self-signed certificate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-signed_certificate

   RFC 5280 defines self-signed certificates as "self-issued certificates where the digital signature may be verified by the public key bound into the certificate" [7] whereas a self-issued certificate is a certificate "in which the issuer and subject are the same entity". While in the strict sense the RFC makes this definition only for CA ...
