As previously stated when the Datacryptor Ethernet unit is supplied from the Manufacturer,
Thales e-Security provides the CA that is loaded. When first commissioned the unit may require
testing and the Universal CA provided on the Datacryptor Element Manager CD-ROM can be
used. This CA is very insecure, as all owners of Datacryptor units will have a copy, which means
that they all have the Admin2.usr file that can be used to log into any unit that has the Universal
CA loaded.
It is essential for security to change this Universal CA to a Custom CA as soon as possible. If the
unit owner has a copy of ‘Certificate Manager’ a trusted member of staff can create the Custom
CA, if not an external SA can provide one.
The process of installing the required elements is done via Commission button on the Key
Manager dialog. The Key Manager dialog is opened via the Key Manager button on the Front
Panel Viewer.
