What does PKCS12 mean?

Public-Key Cryptography Standards #12 (PKCS#12 or PKCS12) is a standard file format for storing cryptographic objects, such as private keys, and other sensitive cryptographic information. It is a binary file that is typically encrypted with a password.
PKCS12 keystores use files with a . p12 extension.
