In case of a .pem file on Ubuntu, it must first be converted to a .crt file:
openssl x509 -in foo.pem -inform PEM -out foo.crt
Or a .cer file can be converted to a .crt file:
openssl x509 -inform DER -in foo.cer -out foo.crt

then, update CA store
That’s all. You should get this output:
No file is needed to edit. Link to your CA is created automatically.
Please note that the certificate filenames have to end in .crt, otherwise the update-ca-certificates script won’t pick up on them.
This procedure works also in newer versions: manuals.

Clarification between update-ca-certificates and dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates and why one works and the other does not!!
This is stated in the header of the /etc/ca-certificates.conf file:

Have the (root / CA) certificate available on a web server, local to your network if you like.
Update: It will be necessary to check if this works on Ubuntu 11. I’ve realised that I just did this on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Installing the Certificate
sudo cp example.crt /etc/ssl/certs
sudo cp example.key /etc/ssl/private
Now simply configure any applications, with the ability to use public-key cryptography, to use the certificate and key files. For example, Apache can provide HTTPS, Dovecot can provide IMAPS and POP3S, etc.

Here are the simple steps:
Note: If you’re running as root, you can drop the sudo from the above commands.

You can download the files you will need for this from the support section of the website here. Save these Certificates to the desktop of the web server machine, then:
(note you will need to repeat this step for all the intermediate certificates that are sent to you.)
Once these are installed, you may need to restart the server.
Root certificates are public-key certificates that help your system determine if a website or program is genuine and is based on whether the licensing authority is trusted and whether the digital certificate remains valid.
There are many certificate authorities, among which the most famous are Symantec® and Comodo®. And their root certificates are always freely available for download.
Windows has built-in certificates and automatically renews them. However, you can still optionally manually add additional root certificates to Windows from trusted certificate authorities (CAs).
This is just done in a few steps. The method is suitable for all versions of Windows.
Now all is done. Websites and programs authenticated by this root certificate will now work fine.
In this guide, we will show you two different methods to install the HttpCanary Certificate on your Android device. HttpCanary is a handy package capture software that provides a convenient method to copy data, and capture packets in window mode. Likewise, it can also format JSON and implement injection interception and other operations.
If your device isn’t rooted, then refer to our guide on How to Root Android via Magisk Patched Boot. once done, you may then start off with the below steps. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.
Using Magisk Module
It is the easier of the two methods and just requires you to flash a Magisk Module.
Manual Installation
Whatever steps the Magisk Module did in the above method, we will be doing the same now, albeit manually. It is a lengthier process than the above-listed one, but if you aren’t convinced with the flashing of the mod and like to take things under your granular control, then this method should be your go-to choice.
That’s it. HttpCanary certificate is now installed as a system certificate on your Android device. So on that note, we round off this guide. If you have any queries concerning the aforementioned steps, do let us know in the comments. We will get back to you with a solution at the earliest.
How to Verify if HttpCanary certificate is installed
There are quite a few different ways to uninstall the HttpCanary certificate from your Android device. You should refer to the one that you had initially used to install the certificate in the first place.
Uninstalling as User Certificate
A technical geek by birth, he always has a keen interest in the Android platform right since the birth of the HTC Dream. The open-source environment always seems to intrigue him with the plethora of options available at his fingertips. “MBA by profession, blogger by choice!”
In this guide, we will show you the steps to install the root certificates on your Windows 11 PC. Root Certificates are digital certificates that are issued by the Certificate Authority. It verifies the websites and software over their credibility and if they checkmark the required prerequisites, it puts virtual a stamp of authority over them. As far as their updates are covered, Microsoft automatically updates them via the Trusted Root Certificate List using its Updates channel.
Given hereby are the steps to download and install root certificates from the Serialized Certificate Store Format (SST) as well as the Serialized Certificate Trust List (STL). You may refer to the section that is in sync with your requirement.
Install Certificates in Windows 11 via SST
If you want to install a particular certificate from the SST bundle, then here’s what you need to do:
Install Certificates in Windows 11 via STL
Now let’s verify where the root certificates have been successfully downloaded and installed on your PC. There are two different methods to do so- via Powershell and using Microsoft Management Console (MMC). The Powershell method is shorter and easier to execute, however, it gives the results in a cluttered form, thereby making it difficult to understand.
On the other hand, the MMC method does take a few additional seconds, but the end results would be simplified and easy to understand. Anyways, we have listed both these methods below, you may refer to the desired one.
Via Powershell
That’s it. These were the steps to install/update certificates in Windows 11. Likewise, we have also listed the steps to check the active and expired certificates.
