Licensing
The NextGen KeySecure requires a valid license to create and manage keys. An initial 90-day Trial License is
provided for evacuation. 30 days prior to license expiration, the NextGen KeySecure Server will notify you, in
the top banner in red, that your license is expiring soon. Before the expiration, a new purchased license must
be installed. Contact Gemalto Sales representative for assistance in obtaining a license.
