1. A method of cryptographic processing across a network, the method comprising:

  • securely maintaining, by a computing device, a set of correspondences between encryption keys and key identifiers;

    receiving, by the computing device, a cryptographic request from a remote device received across the network, the cryptographic request including credentials, data to be cryptographically processed, and a key identifier to be used for cryptographic processing; and

    in response to successfully authenticating the cryptographic request;

    obtaining, by the computing device with reference to the set of correspondences, an encryption key corresponding to the key identifier;

    cryptographically processing, by the computing device, the received data using the obtained encryption key to generate cryptographically-processed data; and

    sending the cryptographically-processed data from the computing device across the network to the remote device.
