SecureLogin 8.5 supports the datastore versions 3.0, 3.5/ 5.5, and 6.0. The SecureLogin datastore version 6.0 includes a range of security features, including storing the single sign-on credentials on the user’s smart card, encrypting the datastore by using the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based credentials and the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption algorithm support.
To support the new features, you must change the SecureLogin datastore format to datastore version 6.0.
The SecureLogin datastore version 6.0, or later client can read data from the 3.x version of the datastore. However, the older versions of SecureLogin cannot read the data from the 6.0 and later versions of the datastore. In case of a mixed corporate environment in which some workstations are running SecureLogin 8.5, and the other workstations are running previous versions of SecureLogin, when a user moves between different versions of SecureLogin on different workstations the data gets incompatible. This is particularly a problem in Citrix environments or in large enterprise deployments.
If the SecureLogin datastore version 3.x is present when you install SecureLogin 8.5 then, SecureLogin detects 3.x data and continues to function correctly.
If you require the new functions, complete the following processes:
Choose a section of the tree to upgrade.
For example:
Container
Group
Organization
User
Make sure that all user workstations in that section of the tree are upgraded with the latest SecureLogin client.
The next time the users log in, their data is converted to the latest version format and the new functions will be available.
