What is a P12 file?
A P12 is a file with a digital certificate that is also referred to as PKCS #12 (Public Key Cryptography Standard #12). It is generally used as a portable file that contains personal private keys and other data deemed sensitive. The portable file comes in handy when transferring any confidential information when need be. P12 files are commonly used in several encryption and security programs. For encryption purposes, what the P12 files do is that they contain a private key that encrypts sensitive data and prevents unauthorized entries. The encrypted data can only be accessed by the corresponding public key, which guarantees the safety of critical information. Likewise, data that has been encrypted by the public key on the other side can only be decrypted by a corresponding private key. The main reason why it is necessary to use the P12 file to encrypt and decrypt is to validate the information.
