Communications: Security Keys

Security keys are used to verify, authenticate, and encrypt communications and content within your ePO-managed environment. The ePO server relies on three security key pairs to verify and authenticate communications and content within your ePO environment. These security key pairs are used to:

· Authenticate agent‑server communication

· Verify the contents of local repositories

· Verify the contents of remote repositories

Each key pair has:

· A secret key that signs messages or packages at the source

· A public key that verifies the messages or packages at the target
