Personal Security Manager allows you to perform the following security tasks:</P></A>
|
||||
<ul><P><A NAME="1043602"><LI><B>Get your own certificate.</B> Personal Security Manager greatly simplifies the process of applying for a <a href="glossary.htm#1018895">certificate</a>. Much like a credit card or a driver's license, a certificate is a form of identification you can use to identify yourself over the Internet and other networks. To get a certificate, go to the URL for any certificate authority and follow the on-screen instructions for obtaining a certificate. For a list of certificate authorities, see <a href="https://certs.netscape.com/" TARGET="_blank">Client Certificates</a>. </LI></A><P><A NAME="1043605"><LI><B>Check security for the current window. </B>When you are viewing any browser or email window, open Personal Security Manager to see security information about the window that you are viewing. The sections <a href="help.htm#1041627">Information About Web Pages</a>, <a href="help.htm#1046060">Information About Stored Email Messages</a>, and <a href="help.htm#1046671">Information About Email Messages You Are Composing</a> in this document explain each information panel. To see the explanation for a specific panel, click the Help button for that panel.</LI></A><P><A NAME="1043618"><LI><B>Control application security settings.</B> To control security settings for Navigator, Messenger, and JavaScript applications, open Personal Security Manager, then click the Applications tab. You can then select panels for Navigator, Messenger, or JavaScript. The section <a href="help.htm#1030083">Applications Tab</a> in this document explains how to use these panels. To see the explanation for a specific panel, click the Help button for that panel.</LI></A><P><A NAME="1043628"><LI><B>Manage Certificates.</B> Personal Security Manager maintains a <a href="glossary.htm#1023462">certificate store</a><I> </I>that contains all available certificates. These include your own certificates, other people's certificates, web site certificates, and certificate authority certificates. To view your certificates, open the main Personal Security Manager window, then click the Certificates tab. You can select panels that allow you to view and manipulate each kind of certificate. The section <a href="help.htm#1030743">Certificates Tab</a> in this document explains how to use the panels for each type of certificate. To see the explanation for a specific panel, click the Help button for that panel.</LI></A><P><A NAME="1043637"><LI><B>Manage external modules and advanced settings.</B> Personal Security Manager can be configured to use external hardware, such as a <a href="glossary.htm#1027625">smart card</a><I>,</I> that performs some or all cryptographic operations and optionally stores your certificates. To view these and other advanced settings, open the main Personal Security Manager window, then click the Advanced tab. The section <a href="help.htm#1036138">Advanced Tab</a> in this document explains how to use the Advanced panels. To see the explanation for a specific panel, click the Help button for that panel.</LI></A></ul><A NAME="1043648">

The Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) makes it possible for Personal Security Manager to perform an online check of a certificate's validity each time the certificate is viewed or used. This process involves checking the certificate against a certificate revocation list (CRL) maintained at a specified web site. Your computer must be online for OCSP to work.</P></A>
