Abstract: A system for managing cryptographic keys and trust relationships in a secure shell (SSH) environment by mapping network servers, clients, and appliances and locating SSH keys and key pairs associated with each device. The system provides for mapping the network topology and all SSH keys and key pairs stored on network connected devices, and the creation of a master database of all devices, keys and key pairs, key types and encryption strength, and user accounts with which each key or key pair is associated. The mapping and database enable the effective management of SSH keys and key pairs, detection of errors and weakness, elimination of orphaned or outdated keys, correction of all deficiencies, and replacement of keys in accordance with policies set by the organization maintaining the network.

Abstract: Methods and a computer readable medium are provided for preserving unique critical information during the data imaging process. A method of augmenting the image process is provided wherein information necessary to properly operate one or more network applications, uniquely identify a computing device on the network, or to fulfill any other similar role is acquired. The information is from time to time stored in locations of the storage device which are not partitioned or otherwise used by the computing device. Further, a computer readable medium is provided wherein one or more locations are partitioned and available for use without any significant restrictions. Additionally, a method of restoring a memory associated with a computing device connected to a network of additional computing devices is provided. Also, critical information is acquired from time to time, and the data including the identifying information are restored upon a request.
