Zusammenfassung:	A user device may determine to back up a hardware key that is associated with a hardware component of the user device. The user device may determine that the user device has an operation key. The user device may retrieve the hardware key from a first data structure that is included in the user device and may encrypt, based on the operation key, the hardware key. The user device may process, after encrypting the hardware key, the hardware key to generate a hash value and may determine that the hash value is not included in a registry of the user device. The user device may transmit, based on determining that the hash value is not included in the registry, the encrypted hardware key to a server device to cause the hardware key to be backed up in a second data structure associated with the server device.
