Administering SecureSuite on Windows XP Home

After SecureSuite installation, all users are converted to SecureSuite users. This
conversion process does not affect a user’s Windows account profile in any way—
it simply involves setting up and initializing a user’s profile in the SecureSuite
database. All authentication methods (except the password method, which is
installed by default and cannot be removed) must be installed either during
installation, later by re-running the SecureSuite installer (

Setup.exe

) or via the

Add/Remove application in the Windows control panel (select the

Modify

option).

After an authentication method is installed, any associated devices that will be
used on your system must also be installed. Only administrators can install and
remove authentication methods and associated devices.

SecureSuite User Manager

The

SecureSuite User Manager

allows administrators to manage many

aspects of user accounts including SecureSuite functionality, applications, and
authentication methods and devices. From the

User Manager

, an administrator

can add new user accounts to the system, change a current user's properties, add
authentication methods and devices, and change a user's access privileges.


Note: User management functionality is available in both the
SecureSuite User Manager and the native Windows User Manager, but

for ease of use, only SecureSuite related functionality is available

in the SecureSuite User Manager. Refer to your Windows documentation
for more information on the native Windows User Manager.
