I need to consume External REST API. but getting below error.

"System.HttpRequest retrying request in response to handshake failure: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target"

I have password & certificate (.jks) file provided by external system team. Please let me know If I need to create me own selfsigned certificate. or I am missing something in code. Is it mandatory to set header too ?

Thanks,

Yes, if you have to do mutual SSL auth for this endpoint, then you will need to create / sign the certificate in Salesforce [1] [2].
