Cloud Key Management Service allows you to create, import, and manage cryptographic keys and perform cryptographic operations in a single centralized cloud service. You can use these keys and perform these operations by using Cloud KMS directly, by using Cloud HSM or Cloud External Key Manager, or by using Customer-Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK) integrations within other Google Cloud services.

With Cloud KMS you are the ultimate custodian of your data, you can manage cryptographic keys in the cloud in the same ways you do on-premises, and you have a provable and monitorable root of trust over your data.

Explore self-paced training from Google Cloud Skills Boost, uses cases, reference architectures, and code samples with examples of how to use and connect Google Cloud services.
