“Integration of Key Management with Cloud-Native Security Platforms”
- A major trend in enterprise key management is its growing integration with cloud-native security tools to ensure secure data encryption and seamless key lifecycle management across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
- As organizations adopt SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS platforms, the need for centrally managed, cloud-compatible key management systems has intensified.
- For instance, in January 2024, Thales introduced enhancements to its CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager, enabling advanced integrations with AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, Google Cloud EKM, and Salesforce Shield Platform Encryption, helping enterprises manage encryption keys more efficiently across diverse cloud services.
- This trend reflects the growing need for interoperability and compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA in cloud ecosystems.
