Developers looking for a solution to manage their cryptographic keys to secure data across AWS services and applications
About AWS Key Management Service
AWS Key Management Service (KMS) is a managed service that facilitates the creation and control of cryptographic keys used to protect your data. It provides centralized management of keys and policies across integrated services and applications, allowing you to define permissions and monitor key usage. AWS KMS integrates with other AWS services, enabling seamless encryption of data stored within these services and control over access to the keys that decrypt it. Developers can utilize the AWS Encryption SDK to incorporate encryption and digital signature functionalities directly into their application code. AWS KMS supports the generation and verification of hash-based message authentication codes to ensure message integrity and authenticity. The service employs hardware security modules validated under the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 Cryptographic Module Validation Program.

Yandex Key Management Service
Use keys to protect the secrets, personal data, and sensitive information you store in the cloud. Create and delete keys, set up access policies, and perform rotation via the management console, CLI, or API. Yandex KMS implements symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. Use the REST or RPC API to encrypt and decrypt small amounts of data, such as secrets and local encryption keys, as well as to sign data using e-signature schemes. You manage access to encrypted data, and Yandex KMS ensures the reliability and physical security of keys. Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) are available. Encrypt small amounts of data using the SDK in Java or Go. To encrypt larger amounts of data, the service is integrated with popular encryption libraries, including the AWS Encryption SDK and Google Tink. Integration with Yandex Lockbox makes it possible to encrypt secrets with your own keys. Secrets and data can also be protected using encryption keys in Managed Service for Kubernetes.

Alliance Key Manager
Once data is encrypted, your private information depends on enterprise-level key management to keep that data safe. The solution provides high availability, standards-based enterprise encryption key management to a wide range of applications and databases. Alliance Key Manager is a FIPS 140-2 compliant enterprise key manager that helps organizations meet compliance requirements and protect private information. The symmetric encryption key management solution creates, manages, and distributes 128-bit, 192-bit, and 256-bit AES keys for any application or database running on any Enterprise operating system. Encryption keys can be restricted based on several criteria. The most permissive level requires a secure and authenticated TLS session to the key server. Individual encryption keys can be restricted to users, groups, or specific users in groups. Enterprise-wide groups can be defined and keys can be restricted to Enterprise users, groups, or specific users in groups.
