What are .p7s and .p7m files?

PKCS#7, also known as CMS (Cryptographic Message Syntax), is a widely used binary signature format. A .p7s is usually a detached signature: it holds the signature and the certificate but not the document. A .p7m file wraps the document inside the signature.

A .p7s often shows up as the attachment smime.p7s of a signed e-mail; .p7m is common in Italy, for example. ASiCE Viewer reads the signer's certificate and the signing time from the signature. If the document is inside, you can preview and download it.
