cryptography standards called Public-Key Cryptography Standards, or PKCS for
short. These standards have been developed to establish interoperability between
computer systems that use public-key technology to secure data across intranets
and the Internet.
Oracle Wallet Manager stores X.509 certificates and
private key
s in PKCS #12
format, and generates certificate requests according to the PKCS #10 specification.
This makes the Oracle wallet structure interoperable with supported third party
PKI applications, and provides wallet portability across operating systems.
Oracle Wallet Manager wallets can be enabled to store credentials on hardware
security modules that use APIs that conform to the PKCS #11 specification. When
PKCS11
wallet type is chosen at the time of wallet creation, then all keys stored in
that wallet are saved to a hardware security module or token, such as smart cards,
PCMCIA cards
, smart diskettes, or other types of portable hardware devices that
store private keys, perform cryptographic operations, or both.
Multiple Certificate Support
Oracle Wallet Manager enables you to store multiple
certificate
s for each wallet,
supporting the following
Oracle PKI certificate usages
:
■
SSL
■
S/MIME signature
■
S/MIME encryption
■
Code-Signing
■
CA Certificate Signing
Oracle Wallet Manager supports multiple certificates for a single digital entity,
where each certificate can be used for a set of Oracle PKI certificate usages, but the
same certificate cannot be used for all such usages (See
Table 8–2
and
Table 8–3
