CERTivity FAQ
CERTivity
Being a Java based application, CERTivity could run anywhere where an Oracle JRE is available – this covers a wide range of systems such as Microsoft Windows, Linux, Unix and Mac.
As there are many flavours of hardware, operating systems and versions available it is practically impossible to test each one of these. We have successfully run CERTivity on Micrososft Windows XP, Microsoft Windows 7, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Linux Debian, Linux Ubuntu, Solaris Intel and Mac OS X. Both 32 and 64 bit OS distributions as well as JREs are supported.

CERTivity provides documentation in more format types:
- documentation file, CERTivity.pdf, contained in the doc subdirectory from the distribution kit;
- application help which can easily be accessed using the application’s Menu Help;
- many of the application’s components expose Context Sensitive Help (default F1), the Table of Contents tree being synchronized with the current context;
- a sample subdirectory of the documentation, where you can find samples for testing CERTivity features.
CERTivity being a GUI desktop application it requires a Graphical Interface to install and run.
- The minimum configuration required is: processor – 800MHz Intel Pentium III or equivalent, memory – 512 MB, disk space – 100 MB of free disk space.
- The recommended configuration is: processor – 2.6 GHz Intel Pentium IV or equivalent, memory – 2 GB, disk space – 200 MB of free disk space.
The available KeyStore types are:
- jks – Java KeyStore (Oracle’s KeyStore format);
- pkcs12 – Public-Key Cryptography Standards #12 KeyStore (RSA’s Personal Information Exchange Syntax Standard);
- jceks – Java Cryptography Extension KeyStore (More secure version of JKS);
- bks – Bouncy Castle KeyStore (Bouncy Castle’s version of JKS);
- uber – Bouncy Castle UBER KeyStore (More secure version of BKS);
- Windows Root CA KeyStore;
- Windows User KeyStore.
CERTivity has the following main features and advantages:
- a GUI Representation of the security related items, allowing for visualizing in parallel the following types of models: KeyStores, individual Certificates and Test Certificate Scenarios. The GUI representation is taking advantage of the natural approach of using an IDE style interface;
- KeyStore management – The application is able to work with a wide range of KeyStores types: (JKS, JCEKS, PKCS #12, BKS, UBER and Windows native ones) and supports many KeyStore operations;
- support for many Certificates operations – for example: display certificate details, obtain the revocation status from the signing CA through CRL, test a certificate against a SSL connection, view ASN.1 and PEM representation and many more;
- sign and verify: JAR, PDF, XML and CSR files;
- export options for Key Pairs, Certificates Chains, Public and Private Keys, retrieve and export certificates from multiple sources into multiple formats.
CERTivity® is a powerful pure Java multi-platform visual KeyStores manager. This standalone GUI desktop application provides a natural experience for managing and using KeyStores, Certificates, KeyPairs (Private Key, Certificates Chain), Secret Keys in various formats. It covers and combines functions that otherwise are available through verbose command line tools or other operating system tools or browsers.
Thus developers and system administrator can gain valuable time and ensure the greatest productivity by letting CERTivity taking care of the low level details in a uniform manner on almost all the systems – Windows, Unix/Linux, Mac.
