Overview of the AWS-BYOK
AWS Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) allows customers to create and manage their own encryption keys outside the AWS cloud and securely import them into AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS). This enables customers to maintain control over their encryption keys while using AWS services for data encryption.
Overview of Utimaco ESKM
Utimaco Enterprise Secure Key Manager (ESKM) is a centralized key management solution that enables organizations to securely generate, store, and manage encryption keys. It provides full control over key lifecycle operations, including key creation, rotation, edit, and deletion.
ESKM integrates with AWS to allow customers to manage encryption keys outside the cloud while maintaining strong security and compliance requirements.
Joint Value Proposition
Integrating Utimaco ESKM with AWS BYOK enables organizations to generate and control encryption keys within their Utimaco ESKM environment while securely importing them into AWS KMS for cloud workloads. This combined approach strengthens compliance, maintains key ownership, and ensures consistent, high‑assurance security across hybrid and multi‑cloud deployments, all while supporting seamless cloud adoption without compromising the customer’s root of trust.
