How to activate an Certum S/MIME?
You will be able to initiate the activation process from Your Account, under the Certificate Activation tab.
- Select the certificate you want to activate from the list and click: Activate
- Select the key delivery method for the certificate:
- Generating a key pair — creating a key pair using Certum CryptoAgent application via a browser
- CSR (Certificate Signing Request) — sending the generated CSR
- Enter all necessary data in the certificate data form
- Verify that the data entered are correct (Note: once activated, it will not be possible to change the data in the issued certificate) and confirm the appropriate declarations.
- Verify access to the E-mail address by clicking on the verification link, which is sent during certificate activation to the E-mail address specified in the online form by the customer.
- If you activate an E-mail ID Business certificate, send Certum the relevant documents proving your identity or choose a method of auto-identification.
- After positive verification of all the information sent to Certum, a notification of the issue of the certificate is sent to the E-mail address given in the order. The certificate will be accessible from the customer account.
