Under this section, the private PGP keys and S/MIME certificates of the Bitbucket server are managed. They are used for signing outgoing emails.

For this, you will find the following configuration options:

Server Key Management

If you do not want outgoing email to get signed, then there is no need to provide a server key store, and you can leave this section empty.

Note that, if you have configured Bitbucket to use multiple email addresses, the key store must either hold multiple keys or certificates for them, or the keys or certificates must be issued for multiple email addresses.

This section has two tabs each displaying one of the two different encryption methods.

S/MIME

Private S/MIME Certificates

In this section, you can optionally provide a key store containing the private certificates to be used for S/MIME email signing.

If outgoing emails are to be signed, the server key store should also contain the (public) intermediate certificates, so they can be included in the signature.

Key store location

Provide path and file name of the certificate keystore, as seen from the server your Bitbucket instance runs on. The key store must be in PKCS#12 format. The file suffix of such key stores is usually p12 or pfx.

Password

Enter the password required to access the S/MIME key store. That is the keyword used to create the the key store. For details on password protection, see below.

PGP

Private PGP Keys

In this section, you can optionally provide a key store containing the private keys to be used for PGP email signing. 

Key store location

Provide path and file name of the certificate keystore, as seen from the server your Bitbucket instance runs on. The key store must be in ASCII-armored or GPG binary format. The file suffixes of such key stores (also called key rings) are usually asc and gpg, respectively.

Password

Enter the password required to access the PGP key store. That is the keyword used to create the the key store. For details on password protection, see below.



Password protection

The passwords are stored in the database in encrypted format and used only internally. They cannot be reproduced by any Bitbucket user or administrator. However, since encryption of passwords alone cannot be considered fully safe, appropriate access control of your database is a prerequisite to achieve adequate protection.
