Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue could leave imported cryptographic keys behind as temporary files on systems using nCipher Support Software 6.00. A local user who can read those files may obtain sensitive key material. The main business risk is loss of trust in keys used for signing, encryption, or authentication. Likely limited to legacy hosts running nCipher Support Software 6.00 that used generatekey KeySafe to import software keys. Treat as targeted legacy exposure. Prioritize if these keys protect production authentication, signing, encryption, customer data, or regulatory workloads. Mitigation focus: Review the vendor advisory for supported remediation guidance.; Inventory systems using nCipher Support Software 6.00 and generatekey KeySafe.; Remove unexpected temporary key copies under approved operational controls..
