Key Generation and Rollover
First Claim
1. A computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to generate and roll over keys for a cloud based identity management system, the generating and rolling over comprising:
- generating a key set including a previous key and a previous key expiration time, a current key and a current key expiration time, and a next key and a next key expiration time;
storing the key set in a database table;
storing the key set in a memory cache associated with the database table; and
at the current key expiration time, rolling over the key set, including;
retrieving the key set from the database table,updating the previous key and the previous key expiration time with the current key and the current key expiration time,updating the current key and the current key expiration time with the next key and the next key expiration time,generating a new key and a new key expiration time,updating the next key and the next key expiration time with the new key and the new key expiration time,updating the key set in the database table; and
updating the key set in the memory cache.

Abstract
Key generation and roll over is provided for a cloud based identity management system. A key set is generated that includes a previous key and expiration time, a current key and expiration time, and a next key and expiration time, and stores the key set in a database table and a memory cache associated with the database table. At the current key expiration time, the key set is rolled over, including retrieving the key set from the database table, updating the previous key and expiration time with the current key and expiration time, updating the current key and expiration time with the next key and expiration time, generating a new key and expiration time, updating the next key and expiration time with the new key and expiration time, and updating the key set in the database table and the memory cache.

11. A method for generating and rolling over keys for a cloud based identity management system, the method comprising:
-
generating a key set including a previous key and a previous key expiration time, a current key and a current key expiration time, and a next key and a next key expiration time; storing the key set in a database table; storing the key set in a memory cache associated with the database table; and at the current key expiration time, rolling over the key set, including; retrieving the key set from the database table, updating the previous key and the previous key expiration time with the current key and the current key expiration time, updating the current key and the current key expiration time with the next key and the next key expiration time, generating a new key and a new key expiration time, updating the next key and the next key expiration time with the new key and the new key expiration time, updating the key set in the database table; and updating the key set in the memory cache. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A system comprising a server, coupled to a network, including a processor coupled to a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to generate and roll over keys for a cloud based identity management system, the generating and rolling over comprising:
-
generating a key set including a previous key and a previous key expiration time, a current key and a current key expiration time, and a next key and a next key expiration time; storing the key set in a database table; storing the key set in a memory cache associated with the database table; and at the current key expiration time, rolling over the key set, including; retrieving the key set from the database table, updating the previous key and the previous key expiration time with the current key and the current key expiration time, updating the current key and the current key expiration time with the next key and the next key expiration time, generating a new key and a new key expiration time, updating the next key and the next key expiration time with the new key and the new key expiration time, updating the key set in the database table; and updating the key set in the memory cache. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
