RSA 2048 is the recommended default — accepted by every CA. RSA 4096 for longer-lived keys, ECDSA P-256 for modern, compact certificates.

What it does
The CSR Generator creates a Certificate Signing Request (PKCS#10) and its matching private key entirely in your browser. Fill in the subject identity (Common Name, Organization, Country, and more), pick a key algorithm — RSA 2048, RSA 4096, or ECDSA P-256 — and it builds the
ASNASNA number identifying one routing domain on the internet (one AS = one network under a single policy), used by BGP to exchange routes.Learn more
.1 DER structure, signs it with the freshly generated key via the Web Crypto API, and hands you a standard PEMCERTIFICATE REQUEST plus the PKCS#8 private key, ready to download and submit to any certificate authority.
Key generation never touches a server: the pair is created locally, the CSR is assembled and signed locally, and the private key is shown only to you. That makes it safe to use for real certificates — no CA, no website, and no middleman ever sees the key.
How to use it
- Enter the Common Name (CN) — the domain the certificate is for, e.g.
www.example.com. This field is required. - Optionally fill Organization, Country (exactly 2 letters, e.g.
US), State / Province, Locality / City, and Email. - Pick a Key algorithm — RSA 2048 (recommended), RSA 4096, or ECDSA P-256.
- Add any Subject Alternative Names (SANs) — extra domains, wildcard names, IPs, emails, or URIs, one per entry.
- Click Generate CSR. RSA 4096 can take a few seconds.
- Copy or download the CSR (
request.csr) and the private key (private.key).
Examples
Simple single-domain CSR
Input: CN www.example.com, algorithm RSA 2048
Output (truncated):
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
MIIClTCCAX0CAQAwHDAaBgNVBAMME3d3dy5leGFtcGxlLmNvbTCBnzANBgkq
...
-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----Full identity with SANs
Input: CN dev.cosmolabs.org, O CosmoLabs, C US, ST California, L San Francisco,
email gab@cosmolabs.org, SANs cosmolabs.org, 192.168.1.10
Output: a CSR whose subject reads C=US, ST=California, L=San Francisco, O=CosmoLabs, CN=dev.cosmolabs.org, emailAddress=gab@cosmolabs.org with the SANs embedded in an extensionRequest attribute. Verify it anywhere:
openssl req -in request.csr -noout -verify -subject
# Certificate request self-signature verify OKValidation errors
Input: empty CN → Common Name (CN) is required. Country USA → Country must be a 2-letter ISO 3166-1 code (e.g. US, DE).
Good to know
- Private: everything runs 100% client-side on the Web Crypto API — the private key is generated in your browser and never transmitted anywhere.
- Save your private key securely — it cannot be recovered. It is never uploaded, never re-derived, and once you leave the page it is gone.
- The CSR is emitted as a standard PKCS#10 PEM (
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----), signed with SHA-256 (sha256WithRSAEncryptionorecdsa-with-SHA256) — accepted by Let’s Encrypt, DigiCert, and every mainstream CA. - SAN entries are classified automatically: domain names (including wildcards) as dNSName,
http(s)://…as URI,name@domainas email, and IPv4/IPv6 addresses as iPAddress. - Related tools:
