Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses are described for crypto-material life-cycle management for tokenization and/or encryption. A computing device may generate cryptographic material comprising one or more blobs. Each of the blobs may be usable for encryption and/or tokenization for different field types and via various different encryption/tokenization algorithms. Multiple cryptographic blobs might be generated in advance for the same field type/algorithm, such that the cryptographic blobs are quickly available for use. In response to computing device requests for such cryptographic blobs, a cryptographic blob for a particular field/algorithm may be identified and transmitted. The cryptographic material may be refreshed periodically, when most and/or all of the cryptographic blobs are used up, or upon detection of a security breach. The cryptographic material may be appended based on new fields and/or algorithms such that the cryptographic material is backwards- and forwards-compatible.
