The explanation for the answers in question 1 seems confusing. The certificate shown has PEM headers (-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and -----END CERTIFICATE-----), which indicates it is in PEM format (ASCII). However, CER is typically associated with the DER format, which is binary. Could you clarify why CER is marked as correct when the certificate clearly has PEM headers indicating it is in ASCII format?

[@mustapha577]

Both PEM and DER can be seen as a .cer extension

I know this is an older comment, but just in case it helps someone in the future with a similar concern. The .cer certificate file can be in either Base64 OR DER format. So that's why it can work in that selection of answers.
