Managing Privacy Manager Certificates
Privacy Manager Certificates protect data and messages using a cryptographic technology called
public key infrastructure (PKI). PKI requires users to obtain cryptographic keys and a Privacy
Manager Certificate issued by a certificate authority (CA). Unlike most data encryption and
authentication software that only requires you to authenticate periodically, Privacy Manager requires
authentication each time you sign an e-mail message or a Microsoft Office document using a
cryptographic key. Privacy Manager makes the process of saving and sending your important
information safe and secure.
