What is a PEM file?
The PEM file extension refers to Privacy Enhanced Mail certificates, which are Base64-encoded, and are used to secure and authenticate websites. These have been a result of the development carried out by PSRG (Privacy and Security Research Group) of the IRTF. A PEM file may have a private key and CA server certificate or any other requisite certificate that suits the specific scenario to establish the authenticity of a site. Developed in the 1990s, these were initially assigned the job to secure mails but were re-purposed soon. Most users are unlikely to come across PEM files, and even if they do, you must not try to edit them manually.
