Transaction code STRUST is used to manage the public-key information thus enabling the solid trust relationships on the business transactions especially with the use of the Internet where company borders become less transparent. Therefore, many applications in SAP Systems rely on the use of public-key technology to establish the trust infrastructure that is necessary for successful business relationships.
The trust manager performs the PSE and certificate maintenance functions such as generating key pairs, creating certificate requests to be signed by a Certification Authority (CA), and maintaining the list of trusted CAs that the server accepts.
Features
• Generating key pairs and corresponding certificate requests
• Importing the certificate request response into a PSE
• PSE maintenance (for example, creating, displaying and deleting PSEs, as well as monitoring the status of PSEs)
• Maintaining a PSE’s certificate list
• Generating a verification PSE (a PSE that can only be used to verify the subject’s digital signature)
• Assigning a PIN to PSEs, which also creates credentials for the server so that the server can access a protected PSE at runtime
• Distributing a PSE to the individual application servers
• Importing and exporting PSEs
• Importing, parsing, and exporting certificates
