Software Overview

KeyStore Explorer is an open source program used to manage keystore files. The application is designed to replace the keytool, jarsigner, and jadtool Java command-line utilities.

KeyStore Explorer supports an array of KeyStore formats, including JKS, JCEKS, PKCS #12, and UBER. The program enables you to convert between these formats, change passwords, delete or rename keystore entries, and configure CA Certs KeyStores for use with KeyStore operations.

In addition to its keystore capabilities, the program provides helpful key pair, certificate, and private key features. KeyStore Explorer can generate ECC, RSA, and DSA key pairs with self signed X.509 certificates, sign CSRs in PKCS #10 and SPKAC formats, and import X.509 certificate files as trusted certificates.

KeyStore Explorer provides a friendly interface while supporting a variety of popular keystore, certificate, key pair, and private key format. KeyStore Explorer is a great alternative to Java command-line utilities that will help you manage your keystores.
