Safely and efficiently manage your SSH protocol with secure storage, rotation, and access control for SSH keys.
SSH key management refers to the processes and practices involved in securely creating, distributing, using, and revoking SSH (Secure Shell) keys. SSH keys are cryptographic keys that authenticate users and provide secure access to systems, usually for remote login or automated processes.
SSH keys replace outdated security techniques used to encrypt data transfers. However, it is important to protect, analyze, document, and manage SSH keys systematically to ensure their effectiveness. Failure to do so puts the security of the entire system at risk.
By implementing robust key management practices with senhasegura PAM, organizations can protect their systems and data from unauthorized access and security threats.
Increased Security
senhasegura PAM blocks unauthorized access to privileged accounts by providing a secure method for authenticating users and controlling access.
Reduced Risks
Not susceptible to password guessing or brute-force attacks, which reduces the risk of credential theft and unauthorized access to your systems.
Auditing and Accountability
Enables organizations to track and monitor who has access to which systems and when by providing a clear audit trail of SSH key usage and access activities.
Automation and Efficiency
Streamlines key distribution, rotation, and revocation tasks, improving efficiency and ensuring consistent application of SSH key management best practices.
Granular Access Control
senhasegura manages trust relationships between SSH keys and systems and enforces least privilege principles by allowing administrators to assign specific keys to individual users or groups.

Scalability
Scales easily to accommodate changing access requirements and user populations, whether managing a handful of keys or thousands, without sacrificing security.
senhasegura SSH Key Management provides everything you need to securely create, distribute, monitor, and revoke SSH keys:
Key Generation
SSH keys are generated using cryptographic algorithms.
↓
Distribution
The public keys are distributed to the authorized servers or systems.
↓
Authorization
Once the public key is deployed on a server, the associated user is allowed access.
↓
Authentication
When a user attempts to access a server, a private key must be presented for verification.
↓
Rotation and Renewal
SSH keys are rotated periodically to mitigate the risk of compromise.
↓
Revocation
If a private key is compromised or no longer in use, the associated public key is revoked.
↓
Monitoring and Auditing
Comprehensive monitoring and auditing to track key usage and access activities.
