Abstract: A system for dispersing access rights for routing devices in a network including a router, a key and a key socket, and a key-router validation server. The router and the physical key must be present and both must be validated by the key-router validation server before the router can establish a VPN network between remote external and internal networks. Neither the key nor the router does contain critical information for allowing access to networks. Losing either the key, or the router, does not endanger security of the networks. This is the essence of dispersed access rights.
