bold;">Module Functionality</span><br />Provides an encoder and decoder for Base64 (sextet) encoding. PEM is simply a Base64 encoding of DER-encoded data wrapped with banners indicating the type of object that is being encoded. PEM is another encoding format common to cryptography.</p><p><strong>Sextet</strong> encoding means that single byte of data encodes six (6) bits of information. Conversion involves parsing an <em>octet-encoded</em> (a single byte of data encodes eight (8) bytes of information) strea
