What is a Certificate Signing Request (CSR)?

A Certificate Signing Request (CSR) is a block of encoded text that is given to a Certificate Authority (CA) when applying for an SSL Certificate. It includes information such as the organization’s name, domain name, locality, and country.

How does the CSR Decoder work?

Our CSR Decoder tool processes the CSR you upload or paste, extracting and displaying the detailed information contained within. This includes the organization’s name, domain name, locality, country, and more.

Why should I decode my CSR?

Decoding your CSR allows you to verify its details, ensuring it’s correctly generated and contains the correct information before submission to a Certificate Authority (CA).

What information will I get after decoding my CSR?

After decoding, you will receive detailed information such as:

  • Organization Name: The name of the organization applying for the SSL Certificate.
  • Domain Name: The domain name for which the SSL Certificate is being applied.
  • Locality: The city or town where the organization is located.
  • Country: The country where the organization is located.
  • Public Key: The public key associated with the CSR.
  • Signature Algorithm: The algorithm used to sign the CSR.

Is my uploaded CSR safe?
