Key Rotation

Cryptographic Key Rotation

Definition

Key rotation is the practice of periodically replacing cryptographic keys with new ones to limit the damage from a key compromise and ensure compliance with security policies. Automated key rotation through KMS removes the operational burden and human error associated with manual processes.

Rotation frequency should be based on key sensitivity, usage volume, and regulatory requirements.
