Keysystems in large systems implementing distributed data processing and storage technologies
The article discusses the features of the use of the cryptographic information protection means (CIPM)in the environment of distributed processing and storage of data of large information and telecommunication systems (LITS).A brief characteristic is given of the properties of the cryptographic protection control subsystem - the key system (CS). A description is given of symmetric and asymmetric cryptographic systems, required to describe the problem of using KS in LITS.Functional and structural models of the use of KS and CIPM in LITS, are described. Generalized information about the features of using KS in LITS is given. The obtained results form the basis for further work on the development of the architecture and principles of KS construction in LITS that implement distributed data processing and storage technologies. They can be used both as a methodological guide, and when carrying out specific work on the creation and development of systems that implement these technologies, as well as when forming technical specifications for the implementation of work on the creation of such systems.
