Thales ProtectServer: Creating a Storage Data Key

After installing a Thales ProtectServer hardware security module, you need to create a secret key to use as the OneSpan Authentication Server Appliance storage data key.

Use the Thales ProtectServer Key Management Utility to create a sensitive data key. This requires an administrator logon to the token. Note the token label and key label used.

When creating a storage key, the following key attributes are required:

• Double or triple DES
• Sensitive enabled
• Exportable optional, if key backup in use
• Encrypt enabled
• Wrap and unwrap enabled
• Private optional
• All other options disabled
