Method for storing cipher key

Abstract

The present invention provides a key storage method, including the steps of presetting the key data transformation algorithm; generating the original key data by the key generator, and simultaneously generating several key data related to the original key data by the random sequence generator random number; use the set key data transformation algorithm to perform transformation operations on the original key data and related random numbers to obtain the transformed key data corresponding to the original key data; and convert the transformed key data and Each random number related to the original key data is stored in independent storage media. The key storage method of the present invention reduces the complexity of key storage in the prior art key management process, and improves the security mechanism of key storage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of information security, in particular to a key storage method. Background technique [0002] Key management is a key link in the key security system, and the entire life cycle of the key management process includes: [0003] The key registration network node obtains or creates initial key material through security measures and becomes an authorized member of the security domain; [0004] The key creation network node generates key material by itself or obtains key material from the trusted system components of the key management center, where the key material generally includes key data and corresponding algorithm information, etc.; [0005] The key storage network node stores the obtained key material in its own hard disk, ROM device, chip card, hardware token and other related storage media; [0006] The key distribution network node sends the obtained key data to other network nodes respectively, and the key dis...
