Abstract
A security initialization system receives a first initialization request from a first requester to access a first database storing security data and stores context data for the first initialization request that identifies an initialization operation associated with the first database. The security initialization system receives a second initialization request from a second requester to access a second database storing security data and updates the context data to identify an initialization operation associated with the second database. The security initialization system receives a shut down request from one of the requesters, where the shut down request includes data for identifying a corresponding initialization operation in the context data. The security initialization system updates the context data to show that the corresponding initialization operation has a shut down request and determines whether a security module is to be shut down using the context data.
