Key Management

|
Most people would never leave their
house key taped to their front door.
Yet many operators are leaving their tape encryption keys in some
very careless places and inviting thieves into their data. Keys
are written on sticky notes, sent in e-mails, or shared with
multiple employees.
Sometimes keys are even written on the label of the encrypted
tape!
But notes get lost and e-mails get deleted. Over time, people tend
to forget where keys are kept. To prevent loss, keys are often
left out for all to see, providing information access to anyone
with a copy of the physical tape.
Even encrypted data may still be vulnerable if the keys are
exposed. |
