Create a Java KeyStore

Storing sensitive information like the private key in the file system can be insecure. Use a Java KeyStore to protect the private key and certificate with a KeyStore password.

Perform the following steps to create a Java KeyStore:

Run the following command to create a pkcs12 bundle called

keystore_bundle.p12

using the private key and public certificate:

$ openssl pkcs12 -export -in <CERTIFICATE.pem> -inkey <PRIVATE_KEY.pem> -out keystore_bundle.p12 -name <KEYSTORE_ALIAS> -CAfile <CERTIFICATE.pem> -caname root

The following table describes the openssl arguments:

Arguments	Description
CERTIFICATE.pem	The public certificate.
PRIVATE_KEY.pem	The private key.
keystore_bundle.p12	The generated pkcs12 formatted file.
KEYSTORE_ALIAS	The alias of your public certificate in the pkcs12 bundle.

You are prompted to create the KeyStore password. Enter a password of your choice. This password is required to create the Java KeyStore.

Run the following command to create the Java KeyStore called

my_keystore.jks

using the pkcs12 file:

$ keytool -importkeystore -deststorepass <KEYSTORE-PASSWORD> -destkeystore my_keystore.jks -srckeystore keystore_bundle.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12

The following table describes the keytool arguments:

Arguments	Description
my_keystore.jks	The generated Java KeyStore file.
keystore_bundle.p12	The pkcs12 bundle.

You are prompted for the

KEYSTORE-PASSWORD

. Enter the KeyStore password.

The generated .jks file contains the KeyStore that securely holds the private key and the certificate.
