4 1 Overview The purpose of this document is to demonstrate how to secure your Windows logon with he DIGIPASS 860. This device let s you add a certificate and be able to logon with the right user credentials. On removing the Digipass a controlled action can take place. 2 Problem Description The basic Windows logon requires a static password. We know static passwords are not secure. To use the DIGIPASS 860 as logon device, we manually need to install and change a few things. 3 Solution By creating an extra profile in your organization, the Enrollment Agent, it will be possible to rollout certificates on the Digipass 860 for every user. With the Digipass 860 it is possible to logon to Windows, you have SSL functionalities and you are able to encrypt s. This way you create a safe and easy manageable environment for you and all your users. Figure 1: Digipass 860

5 4 Technical Concept 4.1 General overview The DIGIPASS 860 is a hybrid security token enabling strong two factor authentication based upon the knowledge of a password or PIN and the possession of secrets stored in the token. The DIGIPASS 860 offers both DIGIPASS one-time passwords generation and PKI token in one single device. The PKI token functionality provides document signing; strong authentication against PKI enables software systems (operating systems, virtual private networks, applications); as well as , file and disk encryption. 4.2 Procedure To make the DIGIPASS 860 work with the interactive login in Windows, there are a few steps that need to be taken. First of all you have to setup a Certificate Authority. This will be the issuer for the certificates used on the DIGIPASS 860. Next we will make sure all the correct user rights are set. We will make a new group that will be responsible for issuing certificates. This will become a powerful group as they can generate certificates for all domain users, including administrators. And as last we have to enroll the users to the DIGIPASS 860 and setup the workstations to be able to use it. 4.3 Prerequisites The initial prerequisites for setting up DIGIPASS Windows logon are: Active Directory installed on a Windows 2000 or 2003 domain server A Microsoft Certificate Authority (CA) configured with the Enterprise policy module. This may be a root or subordinate CA. Users PCs are Windows 2000 or XP clients

6 5 Setting up DIGIPASS Logon 5.1 Certificate Authority Issue the right type of certificates Start the Certification Authority Microsoft Management Console (MMC), located in the Administrative Tools folder on the Enterprise CA. Open the Certificate Templates (2003) or Policy Settings (2000) folder, and rightclick on this folder. Select New Certificate Template to Issue. Figure 2: Issue the right type of certificates (1) Select, by holding the CTRL key, the following items and click OK: Enrollment Agent Smartcard Logon Smartcard User Figure 3: Issue the right type of certificates (2)

7 5.1.2 Security groups for enrollment station and agents Open the Active Directory Users and Computers from the Administrative Tools folder on the Domain Controller. Right-click the Users folder and select New Group. Figure 4: Security groups for enrollment station and agents (1) Fill in a relevant group name (e.g. Enrollment_Group) and click OK. Figure 5: Security groups for enrollment station and agents (2) Now add users to this group that will be able to make certificates for the DIGIPASS 860. Caution: Please be aware that these users will become powerful users as they can create a certificate for any user in your domain, including administrators.

8 Right-click the group you just created and select properties. Figure 6: Security groups for enrollment station and agents (3) At the members tab, choose the Add button. Figure 7: Security groups for enrollment station and agents (4)

9 Select the user you want to add to the group. (E.g. Enrollment Agent) Figure 8: Security groups for enrollment station and agents (5) As you can see below, a computer can also be an Enrollment Agent. You then have to take care of the physical access to this computer. Click OK to finish Figure 9: Security groups for enrollment station and agents (6)

10 5.1.3 Specifying the Enrollment Policy Certificates issued by the CA are based on certificate templates stored in the Active Directory. The Access Control Lists (ACL) set on these templates determine who (user or computer) can request what (certificates). Open the Active Directory Sites and Services MMC from the Administration Tools folder on the Domain Controller. If the Services folder is not visible, choose View Show Services Node. Open Services Public Key Services Certificate Templates, right-click the Enrollment Agent and select Properties. Figure 10: Specifying the Enrollment Policy (1) By clicking the Add button, add the enrollment group you created before. Figure 11: Specifying the Enrollment Policy (2)

11 Once added, give this group read and enroll permissions. Click OK to finish Figure 12: Specifying the Enrollment Policy (3) Now do the same steps for the Smartcard Logon and Smartcard User template.

12 5.2 Enrollment Station To setup your enrollment station you need to install the DP860 Driver and also the DP860 PKI Middleware. Both can be found in the digipass860.zip file. For the DP860 PKI Middleware a full installation is required. The digipass860.zip file can be found on the demo cd or at: Login on the Enrollment Station (from any domain computer) with the Enrollment Agent user. Click the Start Run mmc.

19 5.3 Logon Settings In order to enforce a user to log on to the network with the DIGIPASS 860, you must change the account option as described below. Open the Active Directory Users and Computers on the domain controller. In the Users folder select the desired username. Right-click the username and select Properties. Figure 25: Logon Settings (1) In the Account tab, select in the Account options: Smart card is required for interactive logon. Click OK to finish. Figure 26: Logon Settings (2) Note: If this option is not enabled the user will be able to log on either with the DIGIPASS 860 or using interactive password logon.

20 6 Enrolling Users For enrollment of users, you have the choice of two templates: Smartcard logon: Logon, SSL Smartcard user: Logon, SSL and Secure So the Smartcard user has the extra ability to secure his transfer with the created certificate. 6.1 Requesting certificates Open your browser and go to: (Where CA-Server is the name of the machine where your CA is installed) Click Request a certificate. Figure 27: Requesting certificates (1)

21 Click the Advanced certificate request link. Figure 28: Requesting certificates (2) Click the Request a certificate for a smart card on behalf of another user by using the smart card certificate enrollment station link. Figure 29: Requesting certificates (3)

22 Select the right Certificate Template, CA and Cryptographic Service Provider (the Charismatics Smart Security Interface CSP in this case). If you are logged in as the Enrollment Agent, the right Administrator Signing Certificate should be selected by default. Otherwise you click the Select Certificate button. In the User To Enroll field, you can select the user you want to create a certificate for. Click the Select User button and a known wizard will start. Figure 30: Requesting certificates (4) Search the user you want to create a certificate for and click OK. Figure 31: Requesting certificates (5)

23 Now make sure your DIGIPASS 860 is plugged in the USB port, and then press the Enroll button. Figure 32: Requesting certificates (6) You will be asked for the pin of the DIGIPASS 860 and press OK to continue. This can take a while. Do not navigate away from this page as long as the process is busy. Note: the default PIN is (8 times 1) and the default SO PIN to unlock the Digipass is (10 times 1). Figure 33: Requesting certificates (7)

24 When the certificate is saved on the DIGIPASS 860, you will get a message in the window stating The smartcard is ready. You now have the possibility to view the recently created certificate. To do so, press the View Certificate button. Figure 34: Requesting certificates (8)

25 6.2 DIGIPASS 860 removal behavior The on smart card removal (read as DIGIPASS 860 removal ) policy is a local computer policy administered on a per machine basis and not on a per user account basis like the smart card required for interactive logon policy. The decision to set the on smart card removal policy depends on the needs of the corporation and how users interact with computers. In situations where users interact with computers in an open floor or kiosk environment, the use of such a policy is highly recommended. The DIGIPASS 860 actually is a smartcard reader and a smartcard combined in one device. Removing the DIGIPASS 860 is like removing a smartcard reader from the computer. This acts completely the same as removing a smartcard from a smartcard reader. To set this removal policy, open the Domain Security Policy from the Administrative Tools on the domain controller. Go to Security Settings Local Policies Security Options. In the list, search for Interactive Logon: Smart card removal behavior. Right-click this option and select Properties. Figure 35: DIGIPASS 860 removal behavior (1) In the next window you can choose which action you want to perform on DIGIPASS 860 removal. Click OK to continue. Figure 36: DIGIPASS 860 removal behavior (2)

26 After setting the removal option, it is needed to update the policies. This can be done by running the command gpupdate from the command line or the Start Run menu. Figure 37: DIGIPASS 860 removal behavior (3) Note: For best practice it is advised to restart the clients when you are testing with these settings, as policy updates may take some time to synchronize.

27 7 Using the DIGIPASS Logon using the DIGIPASS 860 Make sure, the DP860-Driver and DP860-Middleware are installed on the client pc. Afterwards, the login screen will look like the one below. Figure 38: Using The DIGIPASS (1) After connecting the DIGIPASS 860 with the computer, it will automatically be recognized as a smartcard and you will be asked for your pin. Figure 39: Using The DIGIPASS (2) After filling in the pin, the computer logs on with the user which certificate is on the DIGIPASS 860. Figure 40: Using The DIGIPASS (3)

28 7.2 Offline usage When a user is disconnected from the network or the domain controller is unreachable due to failure somewhere along the network path, a user must still be able to logon to his or her computer. With passwords this capability is supported by comparing the hashed password stored by the LSA with a hash of the credential that the user supplied to the GINA during logon. If the hashes are the same then the user can be authenticated to the local machine. In the smart card case, offline logon requires the user s private key to decrypt supplemental credentials originally encrypted using the user s public key. In order to cache the supplemental credentials on the local PC, you need to set correctly the policy Number of previous logons to cache (in case domain controller is not available on the domain server. Here are the values you can assign to this policy: 0 this means no logons are cached locally. If the domain controller is not available you will not be able to log on to your PC using your domain account. n (from 1 to 50) this means that if the domain controller is not available, you can log on locally using the credentials of the latest n (from 1 to 50) domain accounts cached on your machine. For security reasons, it is advisable to: set this policy to 1. Only the user with the DIGIPASS 860 (and obviously the administrator) will be able to logon to his machine when it is disconnected from the network; the administrator should remember to re-login the user if he accomplish some administrative operations on the user machine.

29 8 Unconnected Functionality As the DIGIPASS 860 is a very sophisticated combination of smartcard reader and smartcard. The DIGIPASS 860 has also still the function of regular unconnected Digipass like the DIGIPASS GO 3 with all its advantages. 8-character LCD display Activated by pushing 1 small button DES, 3-DES and AES Supported algorithms are: On board real time clock Time event synchronous Can be combined with a PIN entry on a PC Compatible with the Digipass family members Compatible with over 50 major application software vendors.
