December 2009 - Version 0.8.0
This application is intended for creating and managing X.509 certificates, certificate requests, RSA, DSA and EC private keys and CRLs. Everything that is needed for a CA is implemented. All CAs can sign sub-CAs recursively. These certificate chains are shown clearly. For an easy company-wide use there are customiseable templates that can be used for certificate or request generation. All crypto data is stored in a and endian-agnostic file format portable across operating systems.
