2 Zeroizing an encryption engine Viewing master key IDs When the master key has been backed up multiple times, you can use this feature to view the associated key IDs. To view master key IDs, follow these steps: 1. Select Configure > Encryption from the menu task bar. The Encryption Center dialog box displays. 2. Select a group from the Encryption Center Devices table, then select Group > Security from the menu task bar, or right-click a group and select Security. The Encryption Group Properties dialog box displays with the Security tab selected. 3. From the Master Key Action list, select Master Key IDs. The Master Key IDs dialog box displays. FIGURE 74 Master Key IDs dialog box Zeroizing an encryption engine Zeroizing is the process of erasing all data encryption keys and other sensitive encryption information in an encryption engine. You can zeroize an encryption engine manually to protect encryption keys. No data is lost because the data encryption keys for the encryption targets are stored in the key vault. Zeroizing has the following effects: • All copies of data encryption keys kept in the encryption switch or encryption blade are erased. • Internal public and private key pairs that identify the encryption engine are erased and the encryption switch or the encryption blade is in the FAULTY state. • All encryption operations on this engine are stopped and all virtual initiators (VI) and virtual targets (VT) are removed from the fabric's name service. • The master key is erased from the encryption engine. Once enabled, the encryption engine is able to restore the necessary data encryption keys from the key vault when the master key is restored. 88 Fabric OS Encryption Administrator's Guide 53-1002159-03
