Setting a Certificate as KSP or CSP
When you select a certificate node in the SafeNet Authentication Client Tools Advanced View, the cryptographic provider supported by the specific certificate is displayed under Private Key Data.
You can set a certificate type as Key Storage Provider (KSP) or Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP). This is typically required when you have a token enrolled with a legacy CSP that you want to convert to KSP, to enable support for the Suite B set of cryptographic algorithms (including SHA-2).
To set the certificate as KSP or CSP:
1 Open
SafeNet Authentication Client Tools
Advanced View.
See Opening the Advanced View
2 In the left pane, expand the node of the required token.
3 Right-click the required certificate, and from the shortcut menu, select Set as CSP or Set as KSP.
4 The Token Logon window opens.
5 Enter the Token Password, and click OK.
The supported cryptographic provider is set.
