centralized SSH key management solution
New effortless, painless, and keyless access
Just like passwords, SSH keys grant access to critical infrastructure or data, including credit card data, medical records, tax records, email servers, firewalls, and VPNs.
Keys typically outnumber passwords 10 to 1. This is why we secure your business with a proven Zero Trust key(less) management solution.
Find the best SSH key management approach for your organization
Learn about the 9 most common approaches to SSH key management
& find the best fit for your organization.
Discover
Assess your risks, discover all SSH access (automated and interactive) across your IT infrastructure, and identify all policy-violating encryption keys.
Manage
Implement systematic monitoring and control of your environment via centralized SSH key management. Remove encryption keys that are uncompliant, unmanaged, or bypassing your controls.
Automate
Automate the full lifecycle of SSH cryptographic keys and simplify the effort of staying compliant. Ensure all your sessions are audited, logged, and tracked.
Zero Trust
Radically reduce the overhead of managing permanent SSH keys and move to keyless, just-in-time Zero Trust access with short-lived certificates.

1. Eliminate SSH key risks and attack vectors
SSH keys are complex and can easily go unmanaged. These unmanaged SSH keys are then highly sought after by malicious actors.
With UKM, you remove security risks caused by ungoverned encryption keys that might look legitimate to your existing security controls.
2. Centralize & automate SSH key lifecycle management
By default, SSH key management is decentralized and complex.
With UKM, you manage and discover all encryption keys, key configurations, and SSH login files in a centralized, universal SSH key manager. You can also automate SSH key processes, like provisioning, rotation, remediation, etc.
3. Secure and track your encrypted M2M connections
Machine-to-machine connections are not managed by PAM tools. You need a centralized SSH key management tool, like UKM, to manage your M2M connections, automate routines, track machine credentials, and audit all automated sessions.
UKM also ensures that all M2M connections meet your security policies and use compliant encryption standards and protocol versions.

4. Enforce security policies and pass IT audits
UKM warns you about SSH keys that violate your policies, contravene regulations, or are used ungoverned. You can upgrade, rotate, and delete outdated encryption keys with the option to reverse any action.
With UKM, you enforce compliant access control policies throughout your entire organization.
5. Reduce complexity with Zero Trust keyless access
With UKM, you can maximize key lifecycle automation and radically reduce the number of SSH keys in your environment.
UKM Zero Trust grants only just enough access (JEA), just-in-time (JIT), and with the least privilege needed to get the job done - without leaving any SSH keys behind to manage.
6. Choose zero-touch SSH access governance
UKM Zero Trust makes it easy to manage your SSH keys. You can manage encryption keys in their native locations without complicated vaulting onboarding processes.
UKM Zero Trust comes with non-intrusive deployment without changes to the SSH configuration files, your existing key architecture, or application code.
