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 e-mail 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. You can perform the following tasks: ● Request and install a Privacy Manager Certificate ● View Privacy Manager Certificate details ● Renew Privacy Manager Certificates ● When multiple certificates are available, set a default Privacy Manager Certificate to be used by Privacy Manager ● Delete and revoke a Privacy Manager Certificate (advanced) Requesting and 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 e-mail address. The e-mail address must be set up as an account within Microsoft Outlook on the same computer from which you are requesting the Privacy Manager Certificate. 44 Chapter 9 Privacy Manager for HP ProtectTools (select models only)
