HP Secure Key Manager - Manual (Page 122)

CAUTION:
Do not delete keys that might be needed to decrypt data at some point in the future. Once you
delete a key, there is no way to decrypt data that was encrypted with that key. As such, you should
be extremely cautious when making decisions about deleting keys.
The Keys section enables you to view all the keys on the server. You can click a field name (Key
Name, Owner) to sort the keys by that value; toggle to alternate between ascending and descending
order. You can use the Query field to select a query that will filter this page by the key metadata.
Click Run Query to actually run the query. The query you apply to this page determines which columns
are shown. All keys and columns are shown by default. (But they are not shown in this screenshot.)

The owner is typically the user who created the key. If an owner is listed for the key,
then that user is the only user who can access the key (unless additional group permis-
sions have been granted for the key). If the key was created in an unauthenticated
XML session, or if no owner was specified when the key was created on the Manage-
ment Console, then the key is global, in which case the Owner Username would be
[None]. Global keys can be accessed by all users.
