What is Bring Your Own Keys (BYOK)?

Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) lets you control the keys used by cloud services. Learn the model, where it applies, and how HSM-backed keys support security and regulatory requirements.

What is Bring Your Own Key (BYOK)?

Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) enhances cloud security by empowering users to maintain control over their encryption keys in the cloud environment. With BYOK, you retain ownership and management of your keys, bolstering security and compliance posture while leveraging the scalability and agility of the cloud. BYOK is now supported across all major cloud platforms.

How Does BYOK Work?

Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) safeguard clients' data in the cloud using robust encryption. BYOK enables users to generate a master key, creating a secure enclave to protect tenant keys within the CSP's data centers. This gives users control over their tenant keys, ensuring they are used only for authorized purposes and safeguarding data security in the cloud.
