One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for managing encryption within a database system that is managed by a database administrator, and wherein a user administrator not otherwise associated with the database system, manages users of the database system. This system performs encryption automatically and transparently to a user of the database system. The system operates by receiving a request to store data in a column of the database system. If a user has designated the column as an encrypted column, the system automatically encrypts the data using an encryption function. This encryption function uses a key stored in a keyfile managed by the security administrator. After encrypting the data, the system stores the data in the database system using a storage function of the database system.

An administrator installs a key management agent on a previously approved client machine. The agent is started on the client machine, which posts requests for keys to a central key management service. The central key management service logs requests posted to it by clients, and checks for existing pre-approval records. If none are found, a message is typically sent to an approver for the requesting client machine. When a request is verified as approved, the request is flagged for further processing. The supported systems continuously or periodically look for records flagged for processing, use requests to generate keys and other appropriate elements for the requesting client machine, and post keys and other elements to the key management database. The key management agent polls the central key management service periodically until finding the expected key file, which it downloads and installs into a protected file location on the client machine. The key management agent periodically sends status messages to the central key management service, which tracks expected behavior of the client machine and / or key management agent.

The system has a Key Management System (KMS) with databases. The system also has a first key file and associated second key(s) file in said databases. The system also has an input device at a retail-outlet terminal that inputs an identifier during a sale at the point of sale, wherein the KMS compares the identifier with the first key file and key attributes to determine if the first key is found and if its associated attributes are favorable. The KMS permits or denies the sale of the product based on these attributes. The KMS subsequently permits or denies the installation of the product on target devices based on vendor rules and product attributes.

One implementation of a method for providing backup storage services for encrypted data includes receiving signatures of convergently encrypted portions of data from client computers, determining whether the encrypted portions are already present on a backup storage, and obtaining only the needed portions.
