The present invention is directed to a system, method and computer program for easily and securely managing multiple keys on a computer, each key being used to access one or a plurality of computing resources. The method comprises the steps of receiving a command for selecting a key among one or plurality of keys, each key comprising one or a plurality of key fields; receiving a command for activating a computing resource corresponding to the selected key in order to have access to the computing resource; retrieving and displaying on a computer screen, the one or plurality of key fields associated with the selected key; displaying on the computer screen one or a plurality of input fields, each input field being used to enter the content of an appropriate key field associated with the key selected to access the activated computing resource; passing, in response to an action of a pointing device on a displayed key field, the content of the key field in an appropriate input field of the activated computing resource; and having access to the activated computing resource when all key fields of the selected key have been passed to the appropriate input fields.
