Hi, 

 

AEM does come with a keyStore, but I’m not sure if this is officially documented beyond its use for SAML integration. You can find some blog posts discussing its usage here: https://joao.ws/how-to-use-the-aem-key-store/ https://www.theaemmaven.com/post/private-keys-the-keystore-and-encryption .

 

Additionally, the official SAML documentation includes information on configuring the keyStore: 

https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/how-to/How_to_reconfiguring_the_truststore_and_keystore.html

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-manager-65/content/security/saml-2-0-authenticationhandler#add-the-service-provider-key-and-certificate-chain-to-the-aem-keystore 

 

And most important you can find the JavaDoc here: https://developer.adobe.com/experience-manager/reference-materials/6-5/javadoc/com/adobe/granite/keystore/KeyStoreService.html 

 

Hope this helps.

Thanks. It seems AEM comes with Inbuilt KeyStore. So if it does, how do I digitally sign documents

Thanks. So where does the keystore reside -on the AEM server? Do we create the KeyStore or does it come created for you?
