Gartner® Report: How to Improve Data Security With Cloud Key Management

Gartner® says, "Data is moving across different cloud services and geographic locations, creating security and compliance risks. Security and risk management leaders should review how vendor products can help, because encryption key management products from cloud service providers do not mitigate all risks." 

This Gartner research assesses the current KMaaS options to help organizations make decisions that support data security, compliance, and privacy strategy and operational benefits through strong data security governance.
