SafeNet Authentication Client Tools

Administrators use SafeNet Authentication Client Tools to set token policies. Users use SafeNet Authentication Client Tools to perform basic token management functions, such as changing passwords and viewing certificates on a connected token. In addition, SafeNet Authentication Client Tools provides users and administrators with a quick and easy way to transfer digital certificates and keys between a computer and a token.

SafeNet Authentication Client Tools includes an initialization feature allowing administrators to initialize tokens according to specific organizational requirements or security modes, and a password quality feature which sets parameters to calculate a Token Password quality rating.

CAUTION

Do not disconnect a token from the USB port, or a smart card from the reader, during an operation. This may cause corruption of the data on the token or smart card.

 

SafeNet Authentication Client Tools includes two viewing options:

n         Simple view: to perform common tasks.

 See Opening the Simple View

n         Advanced view: for extensive control over SafeNet Authentication Client and your connected tokens.

 See Opening the Advanced View

 

Each view displays two panes:

n         The left pane indicates which token (Simple view) or which object (Advanced view) is to be managed.

n         The right pane enables the user to perform specific actions to the selected token or object.

 A toolbar at the top of the window enables certain actions to be initiated in both views.
