ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for re-initializing a cryptographic processing module (102) at a location designated as an unclassified environment. The method includes storing in a database (122) a module unique recovery vector (310, 510) assigned to a cryptographic processing module. The method also includes indexing the module unique recovery vector in the database using a unique module identifying code (for example, a serial number) assigned to the cryptographic processing module. The method further includes subsequently communicating the module unique recovery vector from the database, over a computer network (120), to a remote computing environment (400) that is unclassified. The module unique recovery vector is used to re-initialize the cryptographic processing module.
