Overview of the Oracle wallet manager

Oracle Wallets are password-protected containers that are used to store SSL-related:

• Authentication and signing credentials
• Private keys
• Certificates
• Trusted certificates

The Oracle Wallet Manager is an application that wallet owners use to maintain the security credentials in their Oracle wallets. You use the Oracle Wallet Manager to perform tasks such as:

• Creating wallets
• Generating certificate requests
• Opening wallets to access PKI-based services
• Save credentials to cryptographic hardware devices, such as smart cards
• Upload wallets to and download them from an LDAP directory
• Import third-party PKCS #12-format wallets, and export Oracle wallets to a third-party environment

The Oracle Wallet manager can save credentials to smart cards by using APIs which comply to the Public-Key Cryptography Standards #11 (PKCS #11) specification.

Create the Wallet with the Oracle wallet manager

Navigate to $INST_TOP/certs/Apache directory to create the new wallet.
