Manage WebStart and Jar Signing

Java Web Start is a technology developed by Sun Microsystems (now Oracle) to allow you to download and run Java applications directly from your browser with one-click activation.

Java Web Start requires that any JAR downloaded is signed by the software vendor. To support this requirement, Artifactory lets you manage a set of signing keys that are used to automatically sign JAR files downloaded from a virtual repository.

For more information, see the Oracle documentation for Java Web Start.

Signing keys are managed in the Administration module under Artifactory | Security | Keys Management.
