What are the steps to extract public key from certificate?
How can I get the public key of a webpage like verisign , etc. using HTTPS protocol?
To extract public key from certificate - In google chrome, go to the https web page (say https://mail.google.com), click on the lock next to the URL, then click on "certificate information", click on the "Details" tab, and then find "Subject Public Key Info", which for mail.google.com says Subject Public Key Algorithm: "PKCS #1 RSA Encryption" and Subject's Public Key:
