# DER Serialized Public Key Loader
|
|
|
|
Loads a public key from a DER-encoded byte string.
|
|
|
|
Source library: `cryptography`
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
This node loads a public key serialized in DER format. DER is a binary format commonly used in X.509 digital certificates and public key infrastructure (PKI) systems.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
- **keyfile**: The DER-encoded public key data, as a `BYTESLIKE` object.
|
|
|
|
## Outputs
|
|
|
|
- **loaded_key**: The loaded public key object (`KEYOBJ`), ready for use with verification nodes.
|
|
|
|
## Additional Considerations
|
|
|
|
- DER public keys are commonly found in X.509 certificates. Always verify the certificate chain when loading public keys from untrusted sources.
