4.2.3 Admin Smart Card Initialization
(Note that this section is applicable only to Enterprise User. This function shall be invoke
by Administrators during DISKCRYPT M100 setup and provisioning. Administrators may
refer to the DiskCrypt key Management System Guide on preparation of the Admin smart
card)
This procedure allows a supported Admin smart card to be initialized with DISKCRYPT
M100 device. This function injects a Disk Key into DISKCRYPT M100. The Disk Key is
used in conjuncture with the User Key (stored in User smart card) to deduce a
Symmetric Key used for cryptographic functions of DiskCrypt M100. To initialize the
Admin smart card, follow these steps:
1. Insert the Admin smart card into DISKCRYPT M100. The keypad will turn on to
allow key entry.
2. The ERROR LED may light up indicating an untagged card has been inserted.
Ignore the LED if it lights up.
3. Press the ADMIN button, followed by the ‘5’ button.
4. Press ENTER. The STATUS LED will blink three times.
5. Enter the 8-digit Admin PIN and press ENTER. The STATUS LED will blink
continuously. Proceed to the next step.
6. Enter the 8-digit Admin smart card PIN and press ENTER
7. DISKCRYPT M100 will proceed to initialize the Admin smart card with the
DISKCRYPT M100 device. While the initialization process is taking place, the
STATUS LED will continue to blink. At the end of the process, DISKCRYPT M100
will provide three ‘beep’ sounds to indicate that this operation is successful.
8. Remove and reconnect the USB cable to exit the Administrative mode.
Note:
The Admin smart card shall be stored in a secure location as it contains the Disk Key.
