Abstract: A key management system includes a managed system coupled to a management system through a network. The managed system includes managed device locking subsystem(s) coupled to a managed device and a key storage. The managed device locking subsystem(s) retrieve, through the network from the management system, a managed device locking key that is configured to unlock the managed device. The managed device locking subsystem(s) then encrypt the managed device locking key to provide an encrypted managed device locking key, and store the encrypted managed device locking key in the key storage. Subsequent to storing the encrypted managed device locking key, the managed device locking subsystem(s) retrieve the encrypted managed device locking key from the key storage, and decrypt the encrypted managed device locking key to provide a decrypted managed device locking key. The managed device locking subsystem(s) then use the decrypted managed device locking key to unlock the managed device.

Abstract: A device-capability-based locking key management system includes a key management system coupled to a server device via a network. The server device includes storage devices coupled to a remote access controller device. The remote access controller device identifies each of the storage devices, and then identifies a key management profile for each of the storage devices. A first key management profile identified for at least one first storage device is different from a second key management profile identified for at least one second storage device. The remote access controller device then uses the respective key management profile identified for each of the storage devices to create a respective key management sub-client for each of the storage devices, and each respective key management sub-client communicates with the key management system to provide a locking key for its respective storage device.

Abstract: Blockchain-based license management provides capabilities for managing licensable aspects of a plurality of IHSs (Information Handling Systems) participating in the blockchain comprised of individual license blocks that record licensing transactions. A licensing authority initiates the blockchain and modifies licensable aspects of a specific participating target IHS by distributing license blocks that include one or more license tokens and license logic specifying instructions for the target's evaluation of the license tokens. Each participating IHS validates the received license blocks and adds them to a local copy of the blockchain. If a participating IHS is the target, that IHS uses the license logic to determine licensing modifications indicated by the licensing token. Licensable aspects of the IHS may then be modified based on the determined licensing modifications.

Abstract: On power-up, self-encrypting drives (SEDs, 150) are unlocked one after another in an order based on the SEDs' unlocking priorities. In determining the priorities, one or more of the following factors are taken into account: (1) the content stored on the SEDs; the SEDs storing the OS are given higher priorities; (2) the SEDs' access history on previous power-ups: if a SED was accessed earlier than other SEDs, then this SED is given a higher priority; (3) whether there is an access request pending for a SED. Such prioritization allows the system to reach full functionality faster on power-ups. Other features are also provided.
