Data Protection on Demand: The Key to Cloud-Based Key Management
This blog post showcases 2 methods for managing encryption keys on the cloud: traditional hardware security modules (HSMs) and cloud-based key management platforms (SafeNet Data Protection on Demand™). Traditional HSMs are used to support general encryption practices, data security standards, and compliance requirements. However, this method has limitations in cloud-based environments. For securing assets on the cloud, SafeNet Data Protection on Demand, a cloud-based key management service from Thales eSecurity®, is a better solution for organizations due to its easily deployable, scalable, and highly elastic platform.
