New Token Guidelines Epass Token (HYP2003)

As we all know, New Token Guidelines, Crypto Guidelines 2.0 are coming in effect from 01/04/2023.
While entire PKI-Ecosystem like CAs, RAs, Token Suppliers, Resellers are preparing to embrace the new guidelines there are some questions related to new and existing HYP2003 tokens which we tried to answer below.
Q. Are new HYP2003 tokens as per Crypto Guidelines 2.0 are available in market?
>> Yes. New HYP2003 Tokens compatible to new guidelines are available with us, please contact us for the quick delivery of the new Tokens.
Q. How to identify the new HYP2003 tokens from the old one?
>> As seen in below picture, serial number for the new HYP2003 tokens, which are compatible to new guidelines, starts with “HS”. Along with this, the serial number series of Token inside the middleware also starts from “HS”. This can be checked inside the Token manager by plugging in the token.

Q. Will the current Tokens stop working from 01/04/2023?
>> Yes. As per the new guidelines all CAs should only download certificates in the USB hardware Tokens which serial number starts with OEM Prefix, for example, in HYP2003 Tokens the serial number should start with “HS”, hence the certificate can’t be downloaded in the existing tokens in circulation.
Q. What happens to the Tokens on which DSC issued before 31/03/2023?
>> The tokens with DSC already issued on before 31/03/2023 will keep working until the entire validity of the DSCs on those.
Q. What happens if the user forgets the PIN or locks the token on which DSC is issued before 31/03/2023?
>> In case where user blocks the token by putting wrong PIN multiple times or forgets the user PIN, which means in the token blocking case, the user has to obtain DSC on new token as the exiting token with PIN blocked won’t be able to download certificate on it after 31/03/2023 as per CCA guidelines.

Disclaimer:
a. The update system has designed for detecting OEM ID of HYP2003 Tokens only and it doesn't update tokens from ePass2003Auto ID, and the update instance fails wasting your update count.
b. It has been observed that some people tried to replace stickers on ePass2003Auto token with HYP2003 stickers, Replacing the physical sticker won't change the OEM ID inside the token.
The Token Update System will fail update on these tokens and the token may get corrupt. These kinds of Tokens, with manipulated stickers, won't get updated on system and you will end up losing your update counts. Update system fails update on any tokens except of HYP2003 eligible series Tokens.
Hence request you to send unused HYP2003 Tokens only for update.
c. In a lot of tokens you will be sending, if any numbers to tokens fails to update, we won't be held responsible for that.
While sending the tokens for update you are agreeing that some tokens may fail to get update and No claims for such tokens should be made.
