Abstract: A system and method are presented for key management and user authentication. Secure SSH access may be performed through a public/private set of SSH keys where a user uploads a public SSH key to a key management application. The private SSH key remains with a device associated with a user. The public SSH key is distributed across multiple regions to instances and is region agnostic. Public SSH keys may be distributed and synchronized in a large cloud computing environment where public SSH keys associated with users may be added or removed in order to rebuild system security.
