ID TECH is a KIF (Key Injection Facility). We currently manage dozens (if not hundreds of keys). Every Key we manage has an ID TECH part number (i.g. IDT-KEYINJ-D01). If you need a unit injected with the specific key, an ID TECH sales person will be able to tell you if the key is already managed by ID TECH or if the key will need to be transferred to ID TECH via a Secure Key Transfer process.

ID TECH has a service where we can create a new key. This service is referred to as a Key Generation service.

Cryptographic Keys are identified by /validated  by the KCV key check value. When we Transfer Keys, the Key will be split into components (usually 2. sometime 3) in our HSM. Each component will be handled separately... by separate operators. The components will be placed in tamper evident bags and shipped to different receiving parties via different carriers. All of this ensures that the Key never exists in whole outside the protection of an HSM.
