Select a key on this dialog page. You can either select password-based decryption or decryption with a private key, which is taken from a keystore or from a signature card.
Encryption with password
If you select password-based decryption you are prompted for a password on the last dialog page "Decrypt".
|
Note: Please mind that this password must be same that was previously used for encryption. |
Decryption with private key
Select the private keys that you want to use for decrypting files. If you possess several keystores and you have sent various business partners different public keys it is important here to know, which of the public keys were used for encryption in order to allow you selecting the appropriate private key.
· Load key from file: Click on this symbol, if you want to upload a private key from file and navigate to the directory that contains the key. You must load a keystore whose filename must end with the suffix p12 or pfx. A keystore contains a software certificate and the required pair of keys for decryption.
After selecting a key its name is displayed in the dialog section below. A keystore or signature card can contain several keys. If so, you must select exactly one key from the list.
· : The displayed key belongs to a certificate that you can display by clicking on this magnifier symbol. You can either
- End the certificate display with the OK button or
- Save it as a file with the save button.
- Use the certificate-symbol button to execute an online validation of the certificate. The inspection sheet is displayed in a separate window.
Default
As explained in chapter 6.3 you can save the settings on this page as default. If you use the navigation arrows in the lower right area of the dialog in later decrypting calls, this dialog is omitted. However, the default is ignored in case the saved key is no longer available.
