Trusted root certificates

Last modified: 30 August 2024

Trusted certificates establish a chain of trust that verifies other certificates signed by the trusted roots — for example, to establish a secure connection to a web server.

IntelliJ IDEA gets the list of trusted root certificates from the system trust store and its storage is customizable from IntelliJ IDEA settings.

If the enterprise environment in which you are working uses custom certificates, IntelliJ IDEA trusts such certificates by default. No additional configuration is required.

Upon the certificate checking, IntelliJ IDEA also checks the system trust stores for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
