Linking Secrets

You can link two or more secrets so that their respective passwords or key values are synchronized simultaneously. For example, you can link the password of one secret to the password of another secret, all of the keys with one secret to each other, or any combination to synchronize management of all your secrets.

Currently, CASA provides only the ability to link keys within the miCASA store. Link secrets by using the Link feature from the CASA Manager:

  1. Press the F2 key or click Edit > Link to open the Manage Secrets and Key-Value pairs window.
  2. Double click on the Key field to open the Link management window. This utility enables you to link the keys of any secrets contained in your miCASA store.
  3. Click the Secret-ID component you want to link.
  4. Click the Key you want to link, click the Key value you want to link, then click the + Button to link the selected Key-Value pair.
  5. Repeat Step 4 to add and link as many secrets as you want. The status of your linked secrets is displayed in the Existing Linked Keys window.
  6. To verify if a secret is linked, view its status in the Key-Value pairs window. The Link field displays either Yes or No. Verify by following any one of these steps:
    * Double-click the secret.
    * Right-click the secret > Click View.
    * Press F2.
  7. To unlink selected secrets, click any of the Secret-ID components listed in the Existing Linked Keys window, then click the — button. The selected secret is deleted from the Existing Linked Keys window.
