# Set up a SafeNet KeySecure keystore

# Set up a SafeNet KeySecure keystore {#ariaid-title1}

* Freigeben Version: Australia

* ![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 Minute Lesedauer

If you are using a SafeNet keystore, copy a set of libraries into the proxy
distribution directory.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: admin

You must install and set up the SafeNet keystore before performing this step. Secure
a license with [Thales](https://www.thalesgroup.com) in order to download the libraries.  
Hinweis:  
For IngrianNAE version 8.12, you must also download the commons-collections.jar file

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

Hinweis:  
On Linux, file paths use a forward slash (/).

## Prozedur

1. Change to the \<installation directory\>/conf/ directory, and open the edgeencryption.properties file.
2. Enter the properties for the [SafeNet
   keystore](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/11zZkc8NDA9UEYvX8O_edw "The edgeencryption.properties configuration file located in the <installation directory>/conf/ folder contains properties used to configure your environment.").  
   Hinweis:  
   You may configure SafeNet keystore using with username/password authentication or client certificate authentication, but not a combination of both.  
   An example for a SafeNet keystore using username and password authentication.

       edgeencryption.nae.retries = 3
       edgeencryption.nae.enabled = true
       edgeencryption.nae.server = url
       edgeencryption.nae.port = 9000
       edgeencryption.nae.protocol = ssl
       edgeencryption.nae.keystore.path = keystore/safenet_truststore
       edgeencryption.nae.keystore.password = password
       edgeencryption.nae.user = safenet_user
       edgeencryption.nae.password = safenet_password

   An example for a SafeNet keystore using client certificate authentication. This authentication method eliminates the need to store the SafeNet server username and password in the properties file.

       edgeencryption.nae.retries = 3
       edgeencryption.nae.enabled = true
       edgeencryption.nae.server = url
       edgeencryption.nae.port = 9000
       edgeencryption.nae.protocol = ssl
       edgeencryption.nae.keystore.path = keystore/safenet_clientcert
       edgeencryption.nae.keystore.password = password
       edgeencryption.nae.client.certificate = cert_name

3. Add or create a key in the SafeNet keystore.  
   You add the key name (alias) on the instance when you assign default keys.
4. Save and close the edgeencryption.properties file.

## Upgrade from Kingston or lower to London or higher {#ariaid-title2}

If you use a SafeNet NAE server for key storage with Edge, before upgrading the proxy
from Kingston or lower to London or higher, you must copy
Gemalto SafeNet client ProtectApp JAR files and add new properties.

### Vorbereitungen

Role required: admin

### Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

Hinweis:  
On Linux, file paths use a forward slash (/).

### Prozedur

1. Copy the following files from \<installation directory\>/lib to the \<installation directory\>/nae directory:  
   * commons-collections\<version\>.jar
   * ingrianlog4j-api-\<version\>.jar
   * ingrianlog4j-core-\<version\>.jar
   * ingrianNAE-\<version\>.jar
   {#safenet-upgrade__ul_bpv_ptt_pt}
2. On the current version (not upgraded) of the proxy, update the \<installation directory\>/conf/edgeencryption.properties file by adding the following two properties:  
   * edgeencryption.ekm.provider.classname = com.snc.edgeencryption.encryption.CloudEdgeNaeKeyProvider
   * edgeencryption.thirdparty.vendor.library.path = \<directory path to the directory where you copied the jar files in step 1\>  
     Hinweis:  
     edgeencryption.thirdparty.vendor.library.path for Java 11.
   {#safenet-upgrade__ul_ewj_vcy_q3b}
3. Save the changes.
4. Proceed with the upgrade to London or higher.
