4.3 Creating the PIN protection key

You must use the Key Manager workflow to create a key to be used to protect the PIN when the credential is issued. This PIN is not used by administrators or users; it is used internally by MyID to protect the issuance of the Intel Authenticate VSC.

To set up the PIN protection key:

1. From the Configuration category, select Key Manager.
2. From the Select Key Type to Manage drop-down list, select PIN Generation Key.
3. Click Next.
4. Click Add New Key.
5. Type a Key Name and Description.

6. Set the following options:

   • Encryption Type – 3DES.
   • Automatically Generate Encryption Key in Software and Store on Database – selected.
   • Exportable – not selected.
7. Click Save.
