Compatible services

This page provides a list of Cloud de Confiance by S3NS services that offer integrations with Cloud KMS. These services generally fall under one of the following categories:

  • A Customer-managed encryption key (CMEK) integration lets you encrypt the data at rest in that service using a Cloud KMS key that you own and manage. Data protected with a CMEK key cannot be decrypted without access to that key.

  • A CMEK-compliant service either does not store data, or only stores data for a short period of time, such as during batch processing. Such data is encrypted using an ephemeral key that only exists in memory and is never written to disk. When the data is no longer needed, the ephemeral key is flushed from memory, and the data can't ever be accessed again. The output of a CMEK-compliant service might be stored in a service that is integrated with CMEK, such as Cloud Storage.

  • Your applications can use Cloud KMS in other ways. For example, you can directly encrypt application data before transmitting or storing it.

To learn more about how data in Cloud de Confiance is protected at rest and how customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK) work, see Customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK).

CMEK-compliant services

The following table lists services that do not use customer-managed encryption keys (CMEKs) because they do not store data long term. For more information on why these services are considered CMEK compliant, see CMEK compliance.
