Abstract
The present application discloses a method, system and apparatus for storing a website private key plaintext. A specific implementation of the method includes: receiving a public key sent from a terminal configured to perform encryption and decryption, wherein the public key is generated at random by the terminal; encrypting a website private key plaintext by using the public key to generate a website private key ciphertext, wherein the website private key plaintext is pre-acquired; and sending the website private key ciphertext to the terminal, so that the terminal decrypts the website private key ciphertext by using the private key to generate the website private key plaintext and store the website private key plaintext in the terminal. This implementation improves the security of storage of the website private key plaintext.
