When you enter the PIN and click OK, the token will be unlocked.

You can specify whether applications can access an item (such as the private key) on the token by
clicking on the item and selecting the Access Control tab:

Figure 4: Access Control settings
By default, all applications are allowed to access this item.

If you want to change this setting, you can select “Confirm before allowing access” and specify
which applications are always allowed access.

In the same way as you are asked to enter your keychain password here (

Figure 3

), you will need

to do so in the application examples below.

When using Safari to access a secure web site (that requires client authentication), you will be
asked to enter the keychain password, because Safari wants to use your hardware token’s
keychain:

Figure 5: Enter the keychain password: Safari
Upon entering the keychain password for your token (as in the picture above) and clicking OK, you
will be able to access the secure web site (if you are allowed to do so).
