Where is the JRE lib/security directory on Mac OS X?

I need to generate a cert and can't find this directory. Thanks!

The location I've found on MacOS Mojave with jre 1.8.0 is: 

/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/lib/security

I was not trying to do any Java certificate-store stuff but needed to tweak some security settings for an applet.

Also, can you believe it's 2019 and we're still messing with this crap? ;)

The following works for 10.11.6 

/Library/Java/Home/jre/lib/security

It's actually just a link to the

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/.../Contents/Home/jre/lib/security
