The feature Identify is used when a service provider requires you to identify yourself using the online identification. Details can be found in section identify-service. 2. You can select the feature See my personal data now. The following figure shows AusweisApp2 after Identify was selected. Fig. 13: Start dialog of the Identify feature 4.1 Process of online identification Usually the online identification follows this pattern: 1. The holder of the ID card wants to use a web service that requires an online identification. 2. AusweisApp2 verifies the security requirements for the online identification and displays the authorization certificate of the service provider as well as the requested set of data. 3. By entering the PIN, the card holder releases the transmission of data. 12

15 Attention: The online identification can be cancelled at the beginning with the following error messages: identify-eid-deactivated identify-pin-disabled Related topics: identify-service identify-about-me 5 > Provider of online identification The dialog Provider lists names and addresses of service providers where the online identification function can be used. 5.1 Open website of service provider with the Internet browser Click on the blue address in the right column to open the respective website in your Internet browser.

21 Fig. 20: Tab PIN management with detected ID card 8.1 Requirements for changing your PIN In order to change your PIN, you need an installed, certified card reader and an ID card with enabled eid function. Hint: Do only certified card readers work? It is possible that other, non-certified card readers also work. However, those card readers are not tested. Information on card readers can be found on Personalausweisportal 1. Please note that changing the PIN through a remote device (smartphone as card reader) is not supported. However, you can change the PIN by using the AusweisApp2 directly on your smartphone. Note: I cannot change the PIN, what can I do? In case you do not meet the requirements, you receive feedback regarding your next steps: settings-pin-management-no-reader settings-pin-management-no-card settings-pin-management-card-disabled settings-pin-management-eid-deactivated 1 Kartenlesegeraete/Kartenlesegeraete.html 19

22 If you meet all requirements, you can start the process settings-pin-change. Related topics: settings-pin-change settings-pin-management-card-disabled pin-letter 9 > Install Card Readers Using the online identification function of your ID card requires a card reader. You can either use a separately available card reader or connect a suitable smartphone to your computer. The Card Readers page assists you with the installation. 9.1 Configuration of a smartphone as card reader In the upper part of the tab Card Readers you can configure a smartphone as card reader. Fig. 21: Card Reader Tab In order to make a remote device (smartphone) available, you have to make sure that it is in the same network and that the remote service function is enabled. 20

23 Hint: If available, the function AP / Client Isolation of your wireless network must be disabled, so that different devices can communicate with each other. Please note that in many public wireless networks the AP isolation function is enabled and therefore you cannot use your smartphone as card reader in those networks. As soon as a remote device with enabled remote service function is found, it is listed here. Fig. 22: Not-paired remote device A remote device must be paired before it can be used as a card reader. You can find detailed information on how to pair a remote device in Section settings-pairing-with-remote-reader. A paired and available remote device is displayed as follows: 21

24 Fig. 23: Paired and available remote device You can now use this device as a card reader. If a paired remote device is unavailable, it will be marked as Paired and not available. 22

25 Fig. 24: Paired, unavailable remote device You can remove a paired remote device by clicking on the Forget button. 9.2 Configuration of a card reader In the lower part of the tab Card Readers you can configure a card reader. As soon as at least one card reader is connected, this device will be listed. The column state reveals whether the driver for this particular card reader is installed correctly. In case the driver is installed correctly, the state is given as Connected w/ driver ; additionally the availability of the card reader is signalled by a green hook next to the card reader s picture. 23

26 Fig. 25: Card reader with correctly installed driver In case that a card reader is connected yet no driver installed, the state is given as Connected w/o driver. In addition, the URL to the manufacturer s website is displayed to download the driver. 24

27 Fig. 26: Card reader without installed driver Hint: It is possible that your card reader is ready-to-use although it is not listed here. 9.3 Install driver for card reader 1. Choose your card reader from the list. 2. Click on the link below the card reader s picture on the right. This opens the manufacturer s website in your browser. 3. Download and install the driver for your card reader. 4. Upon successful installation, the state for the connected card reader changes to Connected w/ driver. Hint: After connecting the card reader, your PC may indicate that the device is ready to be used. However, most card readers largely work properly when the appropriate driver software has been downloaded and installed directly from the manufacturer. Attention: We recommend to restart your computer once the driver software has been installed to make sure that the card reader functions correctly. Related topics: 25

28 > Identify using the online identification (page 12) > PIN management (page 18) 10 > Developer Mode The developer mode is aimed at integrators / developers for new service applications. For this reason, the developer mode works only in the test PKI. By activating the developer mode, some safety tests are deactivated. This means that the authentication process continues although the AusweisApp2 would usually abort the process with an error message when used in normal operation mode. Information on the disregarded error in the developer mode is displayed in the attached window below the AusweisApp Activate Developer Mode In order to activate the developer mode, choose Help in the menu bar and click on About Ausweis- App2. Tick the box next to Developer mode and press OK Excluded Safety Tests If the developer mode is activated some safety tests are deactivated. A message is added to the developer mode protocol if one of the disabled safety tests would fail during normal operation. The following safety tests are disabled in developer mode: The used TLS keys and ephemeral TLS keys have the necessary minimum length. The URL of the TLS certificate description of the eid server and the TcToken URL must fulfill the same-origin policy. 26

29 The used TLS certificates must be entwined with the authorization certificate. The RefreshAddress URL and possible redirect URLs must conform to the HTTPS schema Deactivate Developer Mode You can disable the developer mode by following a similar procedure as for the activation.
