XML-RPC Certificate Authentication
The remote user certificate authentication on the ETEP is required to support the Common Access Card

(smart card) feature in an EncrypTight deployment.
The EncrypTight system supports the use of smart cards such as the DoD Common Access Card (CAC).
The use of a CAC provides user authorization in addition to certificate-based authentication. When you
use CACs, EncrypTight components use the certificates installed on the card to determine if a user is
authorized to perform a specific action.
The use of a CAC provides user authorization in addition to certificate-based authentication. When you

authorized to perform a specific action.
Setting up the ETEP to use a CAC involves several tasks:
1 Install certificates on the ETEPs. This task is performed using the EncrypTight software.
2 Enable strict authentication on the ETEPs.
3 Enable Common Access Card Authentication on the ETEPs
4 Add common names to the existing user accounts on the ETEPs, or add new user accounts with

Additional steps are required to prepare the EncrypTight workstation and ETKMS to use strict
authentication with smart cards. Be sure to complete all of the required steps in order, as described in
