Description
Cryptographic key management and establishment can be performed using manual procedures or automated mechanisms with supporting manual procedures. In addition to being required for the effective operation of a cryptographic mechanism, effective cryptographic key management provides protections to maintain the availability of the information in the event of the loss of cryptographic keys by users. This requirement is applicable to applications involved in the production, control, and distribution of asymmetric cryptographic keys and is NA for databases.
