  2. Open the Soft Token for Windows. For more information, see Opening Soft Token for Windows.
  3. In the Enter Passphrase dialog box, type the token passphrase, and then click OK.

    If you want to use a different token, click the Tokens button, and then in the window that opens double-click the token you want to use.

  4. In the dialog box that opens, use the following options:
    • Challenge  If this text box is available, use it to enter the challenge value you took note of in step 1 of this procedure. You can use the Paste button to paste the challenge value you have copied. The Challenge text box is not available if the administrator has configured Defender to work in the synchronous mode.
    • Response  Displays the response code generated by Defender. Use this code to access the resource protected by Defender (for example, you can click Copy to copy the code to the Clipboard, and then paste it into the sign-in screen of the resource you want to access).
    • Get Response  Click this button to generate a response code that provides you with access to the resource protected by Defender.
  5. Enter the generated response value on the sign-in screen of the protected resource.
