When a CryptoIdentity is plugged, the symbol “+” appears near the slot
description.
• Select the slot where the token is plugged.
• Click Browse and select a valid .pfx or .p12 file
• Insert the password protecting the .pfx or .p12 file selected
• Press Import and insert the token PIN:
• If the PIN and the other parameters specified are correct, the .p12/.pfx certificate and
associated keys are imported into the CryptoIdentity USB token (otherwise an error is
returned).
For security reasons, if a wrong CryptoIdentity PIN is inserted consequently
for 6 times, the CryptoIdentity PIN is LOCKED.
• When the process is completed, a dialog box appears:
• CryptoIdentity now stores securely the imported certificate and cryptographic keys;
cryptographic operations requiring access to the private key will be executed on board.
When a certificate is imported into CryptoIdentity with ImportPKCS12, the
private key that is created is NOT exportable.
