Can I use CipherSafe.NET™ data restored from a drive image on a different system?
Not in a typical scenario (otherwise a hacker would be able to do the same). This is one of those cases where security should be more important than convenience. It is worth mentioning that while CipherSafe.NET™ installation and configuration process requires certain manual steps (just a couple), these steps can be automated. However, if you use the same machine key protected by the Key Manager service on both systems along with the same application directory structure, it may be possible. You can find additional information about this topic in the product documentation.
