General tasks All users have access to the "My Identity" page in Credential Manager. From the "My Identity" page, you can perform the following tasks: ● Change the Windows logon password ● Change a token PIN ● Lock a workstation NOTE: This option is available only if the Credential Manager classic logon prompt is enabled. See Example 1-Using the "Advanced Settings" page to allow Windows logon from Credential Manager on page 30. Creating a virtual token A virtual token works very much like a Java Card or USB Token. The token is saved either on the computer hard drive or in the Windows registry. When you log on with a virtual token, you are asked for a user PIN to complete the authentication. To create a new virtual token: 1. In HP ProtectTools Security Manager for Administrators, click Credential Manager in the left pane. 2. Click My Identity, and then click Register Smart Card or Token. 3. On the Device Type dialog box, click Virtual Token, and then click Next. 4. Specify the token name and location, and click Next. A new virtual token can be stored either in a file or in the Windows registry database. 5. On the Token Properties dialog box, specify the Master PIN and User PIN for the newly created virtual token, select Register smart card or token for authentication, and then click Finish. The Token Properties dialog box is displayed. 6. Type the User PIN, select Register smart card or token for authentication, and then click Finish. Changing the Windows logon password 1. In HP ProtectTools Security Manager for Administrators, click Credential Manager in the left pane. 2. Click My Identity, and then click Change Windows Password. 3. Type your old password in the Old password box. 4. Type your new password in the New password and Confirm password boxes. 5. Click Finish. Changing a token PIN 1. In HP ProtectTools Security Manager for Administrators, click Credential Manager in the left pane. 2. Click My Identity, and then click Change Token PIN. ENWW General tasks 23
