Key store passwords
In Key store password, you can create or change a key store
password. A key store password helps protect private keys
in the smartphone and VPN policy server connections from
unauthorized use.
Creating or changing a key store
password
You create a key store password when you install the first
VPN policy. Create key store passwords that are long and
difficult enough to help protect the information in the
smartphone. If the key store password is broken, the
enterprise network might be exposed to unauthorised
access.
Tip: A key store password must be at least six
characters long and can contain letters, numbers, and
special characters.
To change the key store password, tap Set.
Enter a password that is easy for you to remember but
difficult for anyone else to guess in New password:. To
avoid typing errors, enter the password again in Verify
password: and tap OK.
Entering key store passwords
You must enter the key store password when you:
• Install new or updated VPN policies from VPN policy
servers.
• Use applications to connect to VPN access points that
require certificate authentication.
Using VPN with applications
When you use an application to create a connection to a
VPN access point, the smartphone:
• Connects to the Internet access point that is
associated with the VPN access point.
• Loads the VPN policy that is associated with the VPN
access point.
• Connects to a VPN gateway to create a VPN
connection.
