Resecuring the Secure+ Parameters File and Secure+ Access file

Routinely, or if your Secure+ access file is compromised, perform the following steps to resecure Connect:Direct® Secure Plus:

  1. From the Secure+ Admin Tool Main Window, click Rekey Secure+ from the File menu. The Rekey Secure+ dialog box is displayed.
  2. Type an alphanumeric string at least 32 characters long in the Passphrase field. Connect:Direct Secure Plus uses the passphrase to re-encrypt the Secure+ parameters file the and Secure+ access files. You do not have to remember this passphrase value.
  3. Click OK to accept the new passphrase. The Connect:Direct Secure Plus decrypts and re-encrypts the Secure+ parameters file and Secure+ access file.
    CAUTION:
    Do not type a new passphrase if an error occurs. If an error occurs while you are resecuring the files, restore the node records from the ACFSave directory. This directory is created after the Rekey Secure+ feature is executed.
