A computer-implemented method for remote management of hardware security modules (HSMs) includes receiving a command request from a mobile device. The command request includes an encrypted key part and an encrypted signing key. The HSM decrypts the command request using a key associated with a security zone of the mobile device. The HSM decrypts the encrypted key part and the encrypted signing key. Decrypting the encrypted key part and the encrypted signing key includes using the key associated with the security zone of the mobile device and a key associated with a remote administrator associated with the mobile device. A command is generated for a domain with a target HSM. The command is generated using the decrypted key part and the decrypted signing key. The command is transmitted to the domain for execution by the target HSM. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Aspects of the invention include providing intelligent content recommendations to groups of people. A non-limiting example computer-implemented method includes identifying, by a processor, the presence of a plurality of users in a location. The method creates a virtual user with a virtual user profile, by the processor, from profiles of the plurality of users and provides, by the processor, a recommendation to the plurality of users of content to consume based on the virtual user's profile. The method serves, by the processor, the recommended content.
