      Get the public server certificate that indicates that we should only trust the server if it can present a certificate that matches this. This property is typically only needed to access servers using https that has a self-signed certificate. Servers which has a valid certificate signed by a trusted certification authority should be automatically trusted by BASE without setting this property. The certificate must be a X.509 certificate in either binary or base64-encoded DER format.
      Returns:
      A byte array with the certificate or null if no certificate has been set
      See Also:

WRITE permission is required to read this property since it may contain sensitive data, use getClientX509Certificate() to get the public information from the certificate.
      Returns:
