When HeSA has processed your application they mail the DAO an installation
package.
This package contains:

An Acknowledgement of package delivery fax-back letter.
The floppy disk contains five (5) files:

Description |
||
| fac_encrypt.p12 | The personal information exchange encryption file, i.e. the private encryption key which requires a Personal Identification Code (PIC) to be installed. | ||
| fac_sign.p12 | The personal information exchange digital signature file, i.e. the private digital signature which requires a Personal Identification Code (PIC) to be installed. | ||
| hic_encrypt.crt | The cryptographic message encryption file, i.e. the public key of the encryption file which can be sent to another user. | ||
| hic_sign.crt | The cryptographic message digital signature file, i.e. the public key of the digital signature which can be sent to another user. | ||
| trust.p12 | The personal information exchange trust file. This file is a trust link between the HealthCare location, the Registration Authority, and the Certificate Authority. | ||
Note: Before you can install the certificates, you need to get your Personal Identification Code (PIC). The PIC is a randomly generated alpha-numeric code. For example, 1aHu9$C.
To get your PIC, sign the Acknowledgement of package delivery fax-back letter
and fax to the HeSA fax number provided.
Allow time for HeSA to receive and process the fax letter, (4 business hours is
recommended), and then telephone the HeSA PKI Customer Service Centre on the
number provided.
You will need to provide your Application Reference Number, (provided
with the package), AND your Secret Identification, (as supplied by you on
page 1 of the Identification Reference Form.
You have a maximum of three attempts to provide the correct
reference number and secret identification. If you cannot do so, the PIC
will be mailed to the address specified on the HCL application forms. This can take 5 days or more.
If you are successful in providing the reference number and secret identification, HeSA will give you your Personal Identification Code (PIC) over the telephone.
Receiving your PIC and the Location Certificates completes the registration process.
The DAO is now able to Import the Certificates onto the desktop(s).
