“Secure Your Data with Azure VMware Solution’s Customer Managed Keys”
Customer Managed Keys for Azure VMware Solution
Introduction
Azure VMware Solution (AVS) is a Microsoft cloud service that offers customers an integrated platform for running their workloads in the Azure cloud. AVS allows customers to migrate their existing VMware environments to the cloud, giving them access to the latest VMware technologies and services. In order to securely manage and store customer data, AVS has added support for customer-managed keys.
Overview of Customer Managed Keys
Customer managed keys are a type of encryption key that is managed and stored by the customer. They are used to encrypt and decrypt data in order to protect it from unauthorized access. With AVS, customers can now use customer managed keys to protect their data in the cloud.
Benefits of Customer Managed Keys
Customer managed keys provide several benefits to customers. First, they allow customers to maintain complete control over their encryption keys, ensuring that no one but the customer has access to them. This gives customers the peace of mind that their data is secure and protected from unauthorized access. Additionally, customer managed keys are more secure than other types of encryption keys, as they are not stored in the cloud and are not subject to the same security risks.
How Customer Managed Keys Work with AVS
With AVS, customers can create and manage their own customer managed keys, which are stored securely in the cloud. AVS will then use the customer managed keys to encrypt and decrypt customer data as it is transferred between the customer’s on-premises environment and the cloud. This ensures that customer data is always secure and protected from unauthorized access.
Conclusion
Customer managed keys are an important security feature for customers using AVS. They provide customers with complete control over their encryption keys, ensuring that their data is secure and protected from unauthorized access. With AVS, customers can now take advantage of customer managed keys to ensure the security and integrity of their data in the cloud.
