入门¶
To access the OpenPGP smart card of the Nitrokey, install the package libccid. On Debian/Ubuntu based Distributions type in terminal: .. code-block:: bash
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libccid
Important: Once you plug in the Nitrokey, your computer will start the Keyboard Setup Assistant. Don't run through this assistant but exit it right away.
将你的Nitrokey连接到电脑上，并确认所有的对话框，这样USB智能卡设备的驱动程序就会几乎自动安装。
备注
Windows可能无法为智能卡安装一个额外的设备驱动程序。忽略这个警告是安全的。
下载并启动`Nitrokey App <https://www.nitrokey.com/download>`__。
下载并启动`Nitrokey App <https://www.nitrokey.com/download>`__。也许你想把它储存在你的Nitrokey存储器的未加密分区上
Download and start the Nitrokey App. Perhaps you want to store it on the unencrypted partition of your Nitrokey Storage. There won't open a window, but an icon appears in the system tray (see screenshot below). Please right-click on this icon to use all the options of the App.
Open the About window from Nitrokey App's menu and check if you have the latest firmware installed. If it's not the latest, please update.
使用Nitrokey应用程序，将默认的用户密码（默认：123456）和管理密码（默认：12345678）改为您自己的选择。
你的Nitrokey现在可以使用了。
备注
对于某些版本的MacOS来说，有必要安装自定义的`ccid驱动<https://github.com/martinpaljak/osx-ccid-installer>`__（信息见`这里<https://ludovicrousseau.blogspot.com/2016/04/os-x-el-capitan-and-ccid-driver-upgrades.html>`__），但一般来说MacOS应该有板载驱动。
对于所述的许多用例，有必要在设备上安装OpenPGP或S/MIME密钥（见下文）。
用OpenPGP或S/MIME创建密钥¶
目前有两种广泛使用的电子邮件加密标准。OpenPGP/GnuPG在个人中很受欢迎，而S/MIME/x.509则大多被企业使用。如果你对选择哪一个有疑问，你应该使用OpenPGP。
