clrtrust: management tool for certificate trust store

The clrtrust tool provides a frontend for centralized trust store management. It allows for adding (trusting) and removing (distrusting) certificate authorities (CAs). It also provides maintenance commands for viewing and re-generating the trust store.

See man clrtrust for usage information and examples.

clrtrust in Clear Linux OS

Clear Linux* OS uses clrtrust to implement a centralized TLS Trust Store for all its software packages which use Transport Layer Security. The trust store contains a set of trusted Root Certificate Authorities (CAs) which the operating system should trust.

Clear Linux* provides a complete and comprehensible list of well-known CAs out of the box. It is not necessary to take an action to be able to, for example, connect to https://clearlinux.org or https://google.com using TLS-enabled software, such as curl or firefox.
