Setup procedures Managing Privacy Manager Certificates Privacy Manager Certificates protect data and messages using a cryptographic technology called public key infrastructure (PKI). PKI requires users to obtain cryptographic keys and a Privacy Manager Certificate issued by a certificate authority (CA). Unlike most data encryption and authentication software that only requires you to authenticate periodically, Privacy Manager requires authentication each time you sign an email message or a Microsoft Office document using a cryptographic key. Privacy Manager makes the process of saving and sending your important information safe and secure. Certificate Manager allows you to perform the following tasks: ● Requesting a Privacy Manager Certificate on page 66 ● Obtaining a preassigned Corporate Privacy Manager Certificate on page 67 ● Setting a default Privacy Manager Certificate on page 68 ● Importing a third-party certificate on page 67 ● Viewing Privacy Manager Certificate details on page 68 ● Renewing a Privacy Manager Certificate on page 68 ● Setting a default Privacy Manager Certificate on page 68 ● Deleting a Privacy Manager Certificate on page 69 ● Restoring a Privacy Manager Certificate on page 69 ● Revoking your Privacy Manager Certificate on page 69 Installing a Privacy Manager Certificate Before you can use the Privacy Manager features, you must request and install a Privacy Manager Certificate (from within Privacy Manager) using a valid email address.
