Prerequisites

Before you begin, confirm that:

  • The Utimaco u.trust GP HSM has been deployed and configured.

  • An MBK has been created and saved for each HSM (see the CryptoServer documentation).

  • The CryptoServer default administrator has been replaced with a new administrator user.

  • The operating system matches the Tested Versions.

  • The SecurityServer version matches the Tested Versions.

  • The PKCS#11 library has been installed and configured for the environment (see the CryptoServer documentation).

  • You have the administrator privileges required to install software.

  • Para Vault has been deployed and is running normally.

  • Para Vault uses an HSM-capable image: This image has built-in PKCS#11 hardware-protection capability and includes a hardware-protection configuration section in its configuration template. If the current Para Vault uses an image without this capability, first upgrade to an HSM-capable Para Vault image.

  • You have registered an account and obtained download permission from the Utimaco Support Portal.

Installing and deploying Para Vault is out of scope for this document.
