Abstract

Disclosed are a key management method and a key management apparatus. The method includes: after confirming that a user logs into a digital identity through a first identity authentication mode, acquiring a first character decryption key corresponding to a first character in at least one character of the digital identity; and decrypting, based on the first character decryption key, an encrypted target key stored in the digital identity to obtain a target key, where the target key is used to manage an asset corresponding to the first character. Based on the technical solutions provided in the present application, a user can log into a digital identity through existing identity information and implement asset management without memorizing a cumbersome and complicated key, which provides great convenience for the user.
