security

Administer keychains, keys, certificates and the Security framework. More information: https://keith.github.io/xcode-man-pages/security.1.html.

• List all available keychains:

security list-keychains

• Delete a specific keychain:

security delete-keychain path/to/file.keychain

• Create a keychain:

security create-keychain -p password path/to/file.keychain

• Set a certificate to use with a website or service by its common name (fails if several certificates with the same common name exist):

security set-identity-preference -s URL|hostname|service -c "common_name" path/to/file.keychain

• Add a certificate from file to a keychain (if -k isn’t specified, the default keychain is used):

security add-certificates -k file.keychain path/to/cert_file.pem

• Add a CA certificate to the per-user Trust Settings:

security add-trusted-cert -k path/to/user-keychain.keychain-db path/to/ca-cert_file.pem

• Remove a CA certificate from the per-user Trust Settings:

security remove-trusted-cert path/to/ca-cert_file.pem
