Installing a security certificate
2
A Security Certificate enables client server authentication 
encryption using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) 3.0. Encryption 
provides a secure method to transmit sensitive data, such as 
credit card information, across the internet. This provides the 
customer an added level of security when sending information 
such as credit card numbers, during a WVS Job Submit function.
The Security Certificate is purchased from a third party vendor, 
and installed on the Web Viewing and Submission server.
Obtaining the Security Certificate
2
DigiPath 2.0 supports the Verisign and GTE Cybertrust Security 
Certificates. Refer to Table 2-1 for the Security Certificate vendor 
and their web site.
Generating the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and Key Pair file
2
A Key Pair file must be requested from the vendor. You must be 
logged in at the WVS server as the NT Administrator to access 
Microsoft IIS.
To generate the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and Key Pair 
file:
1. Select [Start: Programs: Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack: 
Microsoft Information Server: Internet Service Manager] from 
the Windows desktop. The Management Console opens.
2. Highlight [Default Web Site] from the right section of the 
window.
3. Select [Properties] from the right mouse menu options. The
