What is the difference between a passphrase and a password?
Your IdenTrust account passphrase protects your account services. You will need you passphrase in order to retrieve your certificate, check your account status, revoke your certificate, and in order to renew your account each year. Your password is called a Master Password, CryptoAPI Private Key password, Passcode, Passphrase, or Roaming Client Password, depending on the service you have selected and the hardware and software you use with your certificate. This password protects the certificate in your computer, and is used each time you use the certificate. You may use the same string of letters and numbers for both your passphrase and password; however, the two are not linked, so changing one of them will not affect the other.
