    WSO2 Identity Server supports two types of Key stores:
    • JKS (Java Key Store) - Allows you to read and store key entries and certificate entries. However, the key entries can store only private keys.
    • PKCS12 (Public Key Cryptography Standards) - Allows you to read a Key store in this format and export the information from that Key store. However, you cannot modify the Key store. This is used to import certificates from different browsers into your Java Key store.
