Abstract
Methods, systems, and media are provided for enabling encryption key distribution when a processor is in offline mode. When offline, key distribution servers can distribute private/public key pairs in place of the processor. The servers can distribute a private key to a first server for encryption of data and a public key to the processor, when it is online, to decrypt the data.
