Certificate Watch

When Firefox runs for the first time, CertWatch reads and records all available root certificates, in CertWatchDB.SQLite (in the Profile directory).On subsequent executions of Firefox, CertWatch informs you if there have been any changes (additions/deletions of certificates). In this way, the user can keep track of changes (either due to Firefox updates, or maliciously).When you visit secure websites (https://), CertWatch displays the Details of the full certificate chain, 1) for the website certificate, 2) any intermediate root certificates, 3) up to the top root certificate. At the same time, those details are saved in your profile.Because all certificates are saved, CertWatch is configured by Default to show only the first time a new certificate is encountered. This setting is configurable in the addon Preferences.In addition, CertWatch saves an entry for each HTTPS connection. Although we do not use this information yet, you can read the CertWatchDB.sqlite database file (stored in your Profile folder) with your favorite SQLite editor and read the details. See SQlite Manager at https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/5817 or run "sudo apt-get install sqlitebrowser" in Linux.CertWatch is internationalised, so you can start localising (translating) in your own language.
