KMS

Key Management Service

Definition

A KMS provides centralized generation, storage, rotation, and auditing of cryptographic keys used for data encryption. Cloud KMS offerings (AWS KMS, GCP KMS, Azure Key Vault) integrate with storage services, databases, and applications to provide envelope encryption without exposing raw keys.

Proper KMS usage separates key management from data management, limiting exposure in a breach.
