Fixing SSL/TLS Certificate Errors

Device Protection proxies your traffic through a local CA certificate. The following tools are configured automatically at install:

• Node.js, npm

• Python (pip, Poetry, uv)

• Ruby (Bundler, RubyGems)

• Java (all JDKs discovered at install time)

• git, curl

• Homebrew, Bazel, Nix (macOS)

• JetBrains IDEs, Android Studio, DBeaver

• Firefox

• macOS System Keychain / Windows Certificate Store

Don't see your tool? Contact support, we'll look into adding automatic support for it.

If you need to fix it yourself in the meantime, use the information below.

Builds that run inside a container, such as docker build or a CI job in a container image, don't see the CA certificate installed on the host. Install Device Protection inside the image instead. See Device Protection in Containers.

Unsupported tools

The CA certificate is stored at:

macOS

/Library/Application Support/AikidoSecurity/EndpointProtection/run/endpoint-protection-proxy-ca-crt.pem

Windows

C:\ProgramData\AikidoSecurity\EndpointProtection\run\endpoint-protection-proxy-ca-crt.pem

Linux

/var/lib/aikidosecurity/endpoint-protection/run/endpoint-protection-proxy-ca-crt.pem

You can also copy your workspace CA certificate in PEM format from the Certificates page in Aikido, under Root CA Certificate.

Follow your tool's documentation for adding a custom CA certificate.

Your organization's own CA

If the failing certificate is your organization's, not Aikido's, for example a corporate proxy that inspects TLS traffic or a private registry with an internal certificate, add it to the bundles Aikido builds instead. See Adding a Custom CA Certificate.
