Abstract
Storage associated with a virtual machine or other type of device may be migrated between locations (e.g., physical devices, network locations, etc.). To maintain the security of the storage, a system may manage the encryption of the storage area such that a storage area is encrypted with a first encryption key that may be maintained through the migration. A header of the storage area, on the other hand, may be encrypted using a second encryption key and the first encryption key may be stored therein. Upon transfer, the header may be re-encrypted to affect the transfer of security.
