A key store is a repository for storing (cryptographic) keys. It is not specific to Unity, and it has nothing to do with copyright. It keeps your keys safe, so that people know that anything signed with your key (such as an app on the Google Play store) came from you.

I recommend you read this: http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html
