!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([CER]) is a restricted variant of [Basic Encoding Rules] for producing unequivocal transfer syntax for data structures described by [ASN.1].
Whereas BER gives choices as to how data values may be encoded, [{$pagename}] (together with DER) selects just one [encoding] from those allowed by the [Basic Encoding Rules], eliminating rest of the options. [{$pagename}] is useful when the [encodings] must be preserved, e.g. in security exchanges.[1]
[{$pagename}] was designed for use with messages so huge that it is easiest to start [encoding] them before their entire value is fully available.
[{$pagename}] is rarely used, as the industry has locked onto [Distinguished Encoding Rules] as the preferred means of encoding values for use in secure exchanges.
