Configuring Security Settings : Unlocking the secure vault
  
Unlocking the secure vault
You can unlock and change the password for the secure vault under Administration > Security: Secure Vault.
The secure vault contains sensitive information from your SCC configuration, including SSL private keys and the RiOS data store encryption key. These configuration settings are encrypted on the disk at all times, using AES 256-bit encryption.
Initially the secure vault is keyed with a default password known only to the RiOS software. This enables the system to automatically unlock the vault during system start up. You can change the password, but the secure vault doesn’t automatically unlock upon start up. To optimize SSL connections or to use RiOS data store encryption, the secure vault must be unlocked.
These configuration options are available under Unlock Secure Vault:
