Register a security key on your own profile
How to use Care Identity Management to register a security key that you can then use to authenticate in place of a smartcard.
Register your device
Go to the Care Identity Management start page and log in with your existing authenticator.
When you've logged in to Care Identity Management without a Registration Authority role, select the option to 'Add other authenticators'.
Alternatively you can use the home page panel to 'View your profile', then in the 'Authenticators' tab select 'Add authenticators'.
From the list of authenticators, select 'Security key'.
You'll now see a screen with instructions on how to register the device. Select the check box and 'Register a security key' when you're ready to proceed.
In the window 'Choose where to save this passkey', select 'Security key'.
You'll now see a message asking you to confirm setup. Select 'OK'.
You'll then see another setup message. Select 'OK' again.
Next you'll be asked to tap your security key on the reader or insert it into a USB port.
Once you have tapped or inserted the security key, you'll be asked to enter a PIN. Choose a PIN, and select 'OK'.
If your security is not inserted into a USB port you will be asked to touch it against the reader once again.
You'll now see a 'Passkey saved' message, which confirms that your security key has been paired with Care Identity Management.
When you select OK, you'll see a message confirming that Care Identity Management has registered the security key.
If you return to your user profile screen, you'll now see the security key in the list of authenticators.
