Overview

RFC 5280 Description (see: www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5280.txt)

The certificate policies extension contains a sequence of one or more policy information terms, each of which consists of an object identifier (OID) and optional qualifiers. Optional qualifiers, which MAY be present, are not expected to change the definition of the policy. A certificate policy OID MUST NOT appear more than once in a certificate policies extension.

You can use this extension to parse an existing extension for easy access to the contents or create a new one.
