How to convert or create .pem and .key files from .p12 certificate file for Kount RIS certificate

I have a client who uses Kount for fraud detection and management.  Every year Kount require renewal of their RIS (Risk Inquiry System) certificate to be renewed.

This certificate is a X.509 certificate which has to be generated from Kount website.

Here are the steps I took to renew Kount RIS certificate:

Step 1:  Login to Kount awc.kount.net  (If you are a developer like me and have not logged into Kount for more than a few months, you may need to do forgot password)

Step 2:  go to Admin menu > RIS Certificate > Create New certificate

             (USE FIREFOX - which allows exportation of p12 file)

             (p12 file will be installed inside firefox)

             (export the p12 file to your local computer)

Step 3:  Copy p12 file to your web server to convert to .pem and .key file there using OpenSSL

              

To convert from .p12 to .pem

openssl pkcs12 -clcerts -nokeys -in your_source.p12 -out your_target.pem

To convert from .p12 to .key

openssl pkcs12 -nocerts -in your_source.p12 -out your_target.key

Step 4:   Make a copy of .p12 .pem .key to uniform filename used by your PHP script.

              

Step 5:   Copy the newly generated .pem and .key files to any other web server you have.
