With the SSH Key Manager, you can centrally manage thousands of SSH keys and users
across your enterprise – all from a single console.
SSH Key Manager
Centrally manage and protect SSH access across your multi-cloud and network environments with Keyfactor SSH Key Manager.
IT’S SSH, SIMPLIFIED
Seamless, Secure, Built for Cloud
Simplify
Make it easy for your users to generate and rotate their own SSH keys with just one click.
- Manage keys via self-service UI or API
- Automate alerts for key rotation
- Enforce role-based user permissions
Automate
Enable IT and DevOps teams to automate SSH key deployment as services are spun up in CI/CD.
- Automate key provisioning to any device
- Monitor and audit SSH key lifecycle events
- Manage keys across Linux/Unix machine
Protect
Proactively discover and protect SSH keys and control SSH-based access for machines and users.
- Discover SSH keys on-prem or in the cloud
- Remove unused or unauthorized keys
- Assign SSH access privileges to users
GET VISIBILITY
Discover unknown and rogue SSH keys.
No more logging into each server to track down and audit SSH keys. Automatically scan servers and hosts across your infrastructure and bring keys into a single inventory.
Once discovered, you can easily search your inventory and map key trust relationships to associated users, servers, and service accounts.
ENFORCE POLICY
Remediate risks and enforce key rotation.
Too often orphaned and outdated SSH keys are left unmanaged on the network, leaving privileged access to critical systems open to misuse or compromise.
Proactively identify and remove any outdated and inactive keys with just a click. Your security team can also define maximum key lifespans and schedule automated SSH key rotation alerts to ensure compliance.
CONTROL ACCESS
Automate key deployment and SSH access.
SSH keys are everywhere. IT and DevOps teams routinely push keys around the network without any controls over where or how they are used.
SSH Key Manager syncs with Active Directory (AD) or your identity provider to easily assign and revoke SSH access for specific users and groups. If a user leaves the company, just revoke access and keys are automatically removed – no hassle.
AUDIT EVERY ACTION
Simplify compliance audits.
Audits are never fun, but dashboards and reports make them a lot easier. With Keyfactor SSH Key Manager, you can reduce audits down to just minutes.
Get real-time visibility into the type and status of all SSH keys in one dashboard. Schedule reports on key rotation status and access privileges, and get notified when rogue keys are created out-of-band.
AUTOMATE DEPLOYMENT
Enable SSH key lifecycle automation at scale.
Eliminate the headache of manually managing thousands of SSH keys. Allow users to generate and rotate their own keys within policy via self-service interface or API.
Our Bash Orchestrators work seamlessly in the background to automate key provisioning to remote servers and workloads – even as they are spun up.
