Local key management

Create Local Key…

This option starts a wizard that creates an encryption key. The encryption keys are

stored in so-called “Key Stores”. Each Key Store is protected with either a password

that you select (password token), or with your digital certificate (PKI token). You will

select the proper token when you create the key store.

Your Key Store may be stored either on your computer’s hard disk, or on a removable

storage media, typically a USB memory stick. It is possible to have one Key Store on

the hard disk and another on removable storage, where each Key Store holds different

keys.

If there are no Key Stores available when you select this menu entry, the wizard will

help you to first create a Key Store.

The Create Local Key Wizard

The following steps constitute the Create Local Key… wizard:

1. Welcome dialog – The opening dialog presents some information about what the

wizard will accomplish. Click Next > to continue.

2. Select storage location – Select where you want to place your key store from

the drop-down menu. If you want to place the key store on a USB memory stick,

then make sure the drive is inserted before you start this wizard. When ready,

click the button Next > to continue.

3. Choose protection mechanism – If you create a new key store, you will be

asked to select how you want to protect this key store. There are two options: a)

passwords or b) digital certificates. Only select (b) if you have a digital certificate

available. Depending on if you select (a) or (b), the next dialog will differ.

• Password protected – You will be asked to enter the password you want

to use. Confirm the password and click Next > to continue. Note that the

same password quality rules apply as for your normal Endpoint Encryption

password, e.g. if your Endpoint Encryption password must contain at least

two numbers, then the password for your local keys must also contain at

least two numbers.

• Certificate protected – Select the certificate you want to use from the

list of available certificates. If you do not have a certificate available, the

list will be empty. If so, consult your IT Administrator for information

about what certificates you should have access to. Select the certificate

you want to use and then click Next > to continue.
