The company said in a blog post this week that it will begin asking users who already have enabled two-step verification to authenticate by tapping a prompt on their smartphones whenever they sign into their Google or Gmail account. Now, Google is taking its first steps toward enabling two-factor by default for all its users-and where Google goes in web security, the rest of the industry often follows. The only problem? The onus was always on you to figure out how to make it happen. Doing so ensures that your password isn't the only line of defense against unauthorized access to your accounts. When you navigate to the website that requires certificate authentication, it should prompt you to select one of your installed certificates.“Turn on two-factor authentication” is solid advice, and WIRED has repeated it for years. This will refresh the certificates in use by the browser. You should completely close all instances of Google Chrome.
In order to view your personal certificates, you must run the following command in terminal: You should receive a message in terminal that says, " pk12util: PKCS12 IMPORT SUCCESSFUL". When the file is in your computer, you must run the following command in Terminal: Obtain a PKCS#12 file (*.pfx or *.p12) of the certificate you will use for authentication. Note: These are generally built into Linux by default and pulled from directly from Mozilla. You can do this by navigating to /etc/nf. Opensuse: sudo zypper install mozilla-nss-toolsįirst you want to view which Root certificates your system trusts. Gentoo: su -c "echo 'dev-libs/nss utils' > /etc/portage/e & emerge dev-libs/nss" Note: You will need to launch all commands on Gentoo with the nss prefix, e.g., nsscertutil.
Linux Mint: sudo apt-get install libnss3-tools
The command to obtain the tools differs based on your Linux distribution.ĭebian/Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install libnss3-tools In order to manipulate the certificates in this database, you must use the command line tool certutil and pk12util.įirst you must install the necessary tools. On Linux, it uses the NSS Shared DB that is located in the hidden $HOME/.pki folder. Google Chrome uses the built in certificate store of the operating system it is installed in.
