2. Cryptographic key types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_key_types

   Most other key types are designed to last for long crypto-periods, from about one to two years. When a shorter crypto-period is designed different key types may be used, such as Data Encryption keys, Symmetric Authentication keys, Private Key-Transport keys, Key-Wrapping keys, Authorization keys or RNG keys.

3. Key Management Interoperability Protocol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_Management...

   The Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) is an extensible communication protocol that defines message formats for the manipulation of cryptographic keys on a key management server. This facilitates data encryption by simplifying encryption key management. Keys may be created on a server and then retrieved, possibly wrapped by other keys.

4. Glossary of cryptographic keys - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cryptographic_keys

   seed key - (NSA) a key used to initialize a cryptographic device so it can accept operational keys using benign transfer techniques. Also a key used to initialize a pseudorandom number generator to generate other keys. signature key - public key cryptography can also be used to electronically sign messages. The private key is used to create the ...

5. Key management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_management

   A key management system (KMS), also known as a cryptographic key management system (CKMS) or enterprise key management system (EKMS), is an integrated approach for generating, distributing and managing cryptographic keys for devices and applications. They may cover all aspects of security - from the secure generation of keys over the secure ...

6. Product key - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_key

   Product key on a Proof of License Certificate of Authenticity for Windows Vista Home Premium. A product key, also known as a software key, serial key or activation key, is a specific software-based key for a computer program. It certifies that the copy of the program is original. Product keys consist of a series of numbers and/or letters.

7. Key generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_generator

   This sequence is used as an encryption key at one end of communication, and as a decryption key at the other. One can implement a key generator in a system that aims to generate, distribute, and authenticate [4] keys in a way that without the private key, one cannot access the information in the public end. [5]

8. Key server (cryptographic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_server_(cryptographic)

   A separate key server, known as the PGP Certificate Server, was developed by PGP, Inc. and was used as the software (through version 2.5.x for the server) for the default key server in PGP through version 8.x (for the client software), keyserver.pgp.com. Network Associates was granted a patent co-authored by Jon Callas (United States Patent 6336186) [3] on the key server concept.

9. Authenticator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authenticator

   A cryptographic authenticator is one that uses a cryptographic key. Depending on the key material, a cryptographic authenticator may use symmetric-key cryptography or public-key cryptography. Both avoid memorized secrets, and in the case of public-key cryptography, there are no shared secrets as well, which is an important distinction.
