How to setup SSL Key Store in Mule 4

 SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer.

• - supports Fortezza algorithm.
• - 3.0 version.
• - Message digest is used to create master secret.
• - Message Authentication Code protocol is used.
• - Is complex than TLS(Transport Layer Security).
• - Is less secured as compared to TLS(Transport Layer Security).

Important Key terms:

• SSL - Secure Socket Layer
• TLS - Transport Layer Security
• Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)
• CA - Certificate Authority

Step1: 

Generate Key Store by using following command

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_321\bin>keytool -genkeypair -keystore D:\KeyLocation\keystore.jks -keypass mulesoft -storepass mulesoft -keyalg RSA -sigalg SHA1withRSA -keysize 1024 -alias mule -ext SAN=DNS:localhost,IP:127.0.0.1 -validity 9999

Note: mulesoft is password

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_321\bin>

Open the Key Store by using keystore application. Download from here..

Step2:

Place the keystore.jks file into src/main/resources

Step3:

Configure HTTPS connectore

General>port>8082

TLS>Type>JKS,Path>keystore.jks,Key password=mulesoft,password=mulesoft

http.port=8081

https.port=8082

http.private.port=8091

https.private.port=8092

Note: If you are testing from Postman, then disable SSL certificate verification
