HP Secure Key Manager - Manual (Page 114)

For non-global keys, if a user is not the owner and is not a member of a group with permissions to use the
key, the user cannot access the key.
The owner of a key implicitly has permissions to perform all applicable operations using the key, even if
that user belongs to a group for which permissions are restricted. In the example above, the key owner
can export even if she is not a member of group1 or group2.
Custom Attributes
Use this section to assign custom attributes to the key. You can assign a maximum of 100 custom attributes.
Before assigning custom attributes, you must first create them using the Custom Key Attributes section.
Figure 50 Viewing the Custom Attributes section
The following table describes the components of the Custom Attributes section.

Key Versions and Available Usage
Use this section to create new key versions and manage how those versions are used. All versions of a
key have the same metadata (found on the Key Properties, Permissions, and Custom Attributes sections).
The version number, key state, creation date, default IV, and key bytes differ for each key version. The
latest key version is automatically the default version.
