Service Identity Verification for Python
Use this package if:
service-identity aspires to give you all the tools you need for verifying whether a certificate is valid for the intended purposes.
In the simplest case, this means host name verification.
However, service-identity implements RFC 6125 fully.
Also check out pem that makes loading certificates from all kinds of PEM-encoded files a breeze!
service-identity is released under the MIT license, its documentation lives at Read the Docs, the code on GitHub, and the latest release on PyPI.
service-identity is written and maintained by Hynek Schlawack.
The development is kindly supported by my employer Variomedia AG, service-identity‘s Tidelift subscribers, and all my amazing GitHub Sponsors.
Available as part of the Tidelift Subscription.
The maintainers of service-identity and thousands of other packages are working with Tidelift to deliver commercial support and maintenance for the open-source packages you use to build your applications.
