Changing the Security Password

To protect keys, the system verifies the security password before users create, edit, or modify a key. For system security purposes, keep the password secure. This section describes how to change it.

During operations such as key initialization, the default security password message is displayed. You are advised to change the default password before using the device. You are also advised to periodically change the security password.

To obtain the default password, submit a service ticket.

  3. Click Security Password.
  4. Enter a new security password in the text box and click Save.

    Properly keep the password. After changing the password, save it in a secure medium.
