When you purchase CipherTrust Manager and Connectors licenses, you receive an email after the purchase order has been processed by Thales.
To activate your license, you need the “Entitlement ID” that can be found in the PDF attachment accompanying the email. The email also has the link to the License Portal. The following image shows an example of the email that you will receive.
The Entitlement ID (EID) is highlighted on the PDF attachment. Copy the Entitlement ID and go to the License Portal.
Note
Your entitlement may include both the CipherTrust Manager and associated Connector(s) licenses, or it may be limited to a subset of the components. The instructions provided in this document apply to both cases.
