The CSR (Certificate Signing Request) decoder tool is a software application that reads the information contained within a CSR and displays it in a human-readable format. This tool can be used to verify the information contained in a CSR, such as the domain name, organizational information, and public key, before submitting it to a certificate authority for the issuance of an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate.
Verifying the accuracy of the information contained in a CSR before submitting it to a certificate authority.
Debugging issues with CSR generation by reviewing the information contained in the CSR.
Comparing the information contained in multiple CSRs to ensure that they are consistent.
Validating the encryption algorithm and key length used in the creation of a CSR.
Inspecting the domain name and organizational information contained in a CSR to ensure that they match the intended website.
Checking the signature algorithm used in the creation of a CSR.
Verifying that the public key contained in the CSR is consistent with the private key used to generate the CSR.
Confirming that the CSR was generated using the correct Common Name and Distinguished Name (DN) format.
Decoding CSRs in different formats, such as PEM or DER, to ensure compatibility with different certificate authorities.
Inspecting the CSR to determine the encryption and signature algorithms that are supported by the certificate authority.
