Key Management System

The Key Management System, an independently developed software solution by Watchdata, is designed to administer a diverse array of cryptographic keys within business systems. It encompasses a comprehensive approach to key management, including the injection, generation, exportation, backup, restoration, updating, and decommissioning of keys, ensuring the entire lifecycle is meticulously controlled. Moreover, the system leverages hardware cryptographic devices to execute key algorithmic operations and transactions securely.

This system furnishes business systems with robust key management and service capabilities, enjoying broad adoption across various sectors. It is extensively utilized in mobile payments, telecommunications, banking, social security, and public transportation, as well as other domains related to electronic payment computer network systems.

In the transportation sector, the Key Management System plays a pivotal role in standardizing key management and security certification procedures. By integrating technologies such as IC cards and digital certificates, the system guarantees secure transaction processing and authentication protocols across diverse applications, thereby enhancing the industry’s informational infrastructure.

For the power industry, the system provides both the primary root key for power companies and the secondary root key for cities. It generates individual service root keys for each stage of the electricity charging, metering, and collection processes, which are derived from a master key and subsequently downloaded to the appropriate cryptographic devices.
