The Subject Information Access Extension (OID = 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.1.11).

The subject information access extension indicates how to access information and services for the subject of the certificate in which the extension appears. When the subject is a CA, information and services may include certificate validation services and CA policy data. When the subject is an end entity, the information describes the type of services offered and how to access them. In this case, the contents of this extension are defined in the protocol specifications for the supported services. This extension may be included in end entity or CA certificates. Conforming CAs MUST mark this extension as non-critical.

This extension is defined in Internet X.509 PKI Certificate and Certificate Revocation List (CRL) Profile. The profile permits the extension to be included in end-entity or CA certificates, and it must be marked as non-critical. Its ASN.1 definition is as follows:

  id-pe-subjectInfoAccess OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { id-pe 11 }
  SubjectInfoAccessSyntax  ::=
         SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF AccessDescription
  AccessDescription  ::=  SEQUENCE {
         accessMethod          OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
         accessLocation        GeneralName  }
