Hi @RamaniBa 

Thats correct . AEM has the ability to store your cryptographic artifacts but you need to provide the key and certificate which you need to use. 

On storage part you can check the below blog for more details

Hi @RamaniBa 

You can try using the inbuilt keystore and sign.

Add the necessary private keys and certificates to the keystore.

Then you can create a workflow model and a workflow step which will handle the signing part .In workflow read the asset you want to sign, invoke keystore and then get the key and certificate for signing the asset and then return the asset.

the below links will help you in trying a POC

Hello - Thanks. In what you mentioned do I need to create the public and private keys and the digital certificate? 

Is the KeyStore a physical database structure? 

Does it store the private key , certificate and alias in a row?

How do I pull out the correct key that corresponds to the manager who has to sign digitally without manual intervention
