CipherTrust Cloud Key Management Hold Your Own Key Encryption for AWS XKS
Thales and AWS innovated to create a versatile, feature-rich implementation, providing customers with choices in managing their keys. The collaboration extends the existing key management ownership model of Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) with a Hold Your Own Key (HYOK) offer. With external key store and Thales CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager (CCKM), customers can now choose to have data protected with keys physically located outside of AWS Cloud. The externally stored keys are only accessible via explicit customer authorization. External key store supports most AWS services already integrated with AWS KMS.

CipherTrust Cloud Key Management Bring Your Own Key for AWS KMS
CipherTrust Cloud Key Management (CCKM) increases efficiency by reducing the operational burden—even when all of the cloud keys are native keys. Giving customers lifecycle control, centralized management within and among clouds, and visibility of cloud encryption keys reduces key management complexity and operational costs. Customers report that they stepped away from managing keys across a heterogeneous environment and invested in CCKM to enable them to move securely to the cloud—and their cloud use is growing exponentially, reducing management overhead and the potential for security holes.
