PKI Certificate Parsing

Every PKI certificate has two sections to hold information related to the person for whom this certificate was issued, Subject and Alternative Subject Name.

A Subject section example value is as follows:

Subject: C=UA, L=Kiev, O=microfocus, OU=DA, CN=sample name/emailAddress=sample@email.com/street=sample street, SN=sample/name=sample

An Alternative Subject Name section example value is as follows:

X509v3 Subject Alternative Name: email:email@test.com, DNS:dns-sample, IP Address:1.2.3.4, URI:uri test, Registered ID:1.2.3.4.5.6
