What Is ASN.1 Decoder?

Decodes ASN.1 DER/BER binary structures displaying tag-length-value tree. Recognizes SEQUENCE, SET, INTEGER, BIT STRING, OCTET STRING, OID, and string types. Accepts PEM, Base64, or hex input. Essential for X.509 certificates and PKCS keys. All client-side.

Why Use ASN.1 Decoder?

  • PEM/Base64/hex input
  • Common ASN.1 types
  • Hierarchical display
  • 100% client-side

Common Use Cases

Certificates

X.509 structure.

Keys

PKCS structures.

Protocols

ASN.1 messages.

Education

Encoding rules.

Technical Guide

TLV parsing: 0x02=INTEGER, 0x30=SEQUENCE, 0x06=OID, etc. Constructed types (bit 5) parsed recursively to depth 10. Length: short (0-127), long (0x80|n).

Tips & Best Practices

  • 1
    Works with X.509, PKCS
  • 2
    PEM headers stripped
  • 3
    Recursive parsing
  • 4
    Values truncated
