A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 9500 Title: Standard Public Key Cryptography (PKC) Test Keys Author: P. Gutmann, C. Bonnell Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: December 2023 Mailbox: pgut001@cs.auckland.ac.nz, corey.bonnell@digicert.com Pages: 28 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-gutmann-testkeys-05.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9500 DOI: 10.17487/RFC9500 This document provides a set of standard Public Key Cryptography (PKC) test keys that may be used wherever pre-generated keys and associated operations like digital signatures are required. Like the European Institute for Computer Antivirus Research (EICAR) virus test and the Generic Test for Unsolicited Bulk Email (GTUBE) spam test files, these publicly known test keys can be detected and recognised by applications consuming them as being purely for testing purposes without assigning any security properties to them.
