Abstract
Embodiments described herein are configured for the provision of secure keys and the applications enabled thereby. For instance, an application may read in a first globally-unique value of a pair of globally-unique values from a physically-implemented machine-readable format. The application provides the first globally-unique value, along with a globally-unique identifier of the application, to a database. The database determines a globally-unique value associated with the first globally-unique value, designates the associated globally-unique value as a secure key, and associates the secure key with the application using the application's globally-unique identifier. The application then instructs a user to read in the second globally-unique value from a physically-implemented machine-readable format, which should match the globally-unique value determined by the database of the pair, and designates the second globally-unique value as the secure key.
