how to get AlternativeName and UPN from X509 certificate
using X509NameType Enumeration you can extract all the fields from a x509 certificate. this enum is new for .net 2.0
here is the code:
using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Security.Permissions;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
class CertSelect
{
static void Main()
{
try
{
X509Store store = new X509Store("MY",StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly | OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly);
X509Certificate2Collection collection = (X509Certificate2Collection)store.Certificates;
X509Certificate2Collection fcollection = (X509Certificate2Collection)collection.Find(X509FindType.FindByTimeValid,DateTime.Now,false);
X509Certificate2Collection scollection = X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection(fcollection, "Test Certificate Select","Select a certificate from the following list to get information on that certificate",X509SelectionFlag.MultiSelection);
Console.WriteLine("Number of certificates: {0{1",scollection.Count,Environment.NewLine);
foreach (X509Certificate2 x509 in scollection)
{
byte[] rawdata = x509.RawData;
Console.WriteLine("Content Type: {0{1",X509Certificate2.GetCertContentType(rawdata),Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Friendly Name: {0{1",x509.FriendlyName,Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Certificate Verified?: {0{1",x509.Verify(),Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Simple Name: {0{1",x509.GetNameInfo(X509NameType.SimpleName,true),Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Signature Algorithm: {0{1",x509.SignatureAlgorithm.FriendlyName,Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Private Key: {0{1",x509.PrivateKey.ToXmlString(false),Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Public Key: {0{1",x509.PublicKey.Key.ToXmlString(false),Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Certificate Archived?: {0{1",x509.Archived,Environment.NewLine);
Console.WriteLine("Length of Raw Data: {0{1",x509.RawData.Length,Environment.NewLine);
X509Certificate2UI.DisplayCertificate(x509);
x509.Reset();
store.Close();
catch (CryptographicException)
{
Console.WriteLine("Information could not be written out for this certificate.");
