Java KeyStore (JKS)

Centralize and automate certificate and key management for Java KeyStores used by JVM-based applications.

Overview

QCecuring integrates with Java KeyStore (JKS) to streamline how Java applications consume TLS and mutual TLS certificates. Instead of manually generating and importing keys into individual JKS files, teams can orchestrate the full lifecycle from a centralized platform.

Key capabilities

  • Automated creation and update of JKS files from centrally issued certificates.
  • Support for both truststores and keystores used by Java applications and middleware.
  • Policy-based control over algorithms, key sizes, and certificate chains in each JKS.
  • Integration with CI/CD pipelines for repeatable, controlled deployments.

Typical use cases

  • JVM-based microservices and legacy Java applications that rely on JKS.
  • Middleware platforms such as application servers, ESBs, and message brokers.
  • Organizations standardizing certificate lifecycle management across Java and non‑Java stacks.

High-level integration flow

  1. Register Java applications or environments that require JKS keystores and truststores in QCecuring.
  2. Define template JKS profiles (contents, CAs, chains) and associate them with certificate policies.
  3. QCecuring issues or renews certificates and assembles updated JKS files accordingly.
  4. Updated JKS artifacts are distributed to application hosts or containers via secure channels.
  5. Application and security teams monitor health, expiry, and policy adherence from a single console.
