    AWS KMS provides managed cryptographic key storage, lifecycle control, and policy enforcement for AWS workloads. Its main differentiator is tight coupling with AWS services and FIPS-validated HSM protection, making it a fit for teams that need centralized key control inside the AWS control plane.

    • Organizations with workloads heavily centered in AWS that require centralized, compliant cryptographic key governance without managing physical HSM hardware.
    • Server-side encryption for Amazon S3, EBS, RDS, and DynamoDB
    • Envelope encryption for application-level data protection
    • Digital signing and verification for code or transaction integrity
    • Multi-Region key replication for disaster recovery architecture
