cipher: Sets a ciphertext password for certificate revocation.
simple: Sets a plaintext password for certificate revocation.
password: Specifies the password string. This argument is case sensitive. If simple is specified, it must be

Usage guidelines
In auto mode, an entity automatically requests a certificate from an RA or CA when it has no certificate.
However, if the certificate will expire or has expired, the entity does not initiate a re-request automatically,
in which case you need to request a new one manually. In manual mode, all operations associated with
certificate request are performed manually.
For security purposes, all passwords, including passwords configured in plain text, are saved in cipher
text to the configuration file.
