It is possible to embed certificates in an application. Start by looking
at the openssl executable with the x509 and -C parameters. 

With Cert file I assume you mean the public key. It is supposed to be
"exposed". If it is signed by a certifying authority and you verify that
fact every time you load/use the cert then it does not matter that much.
