Challenge

Cryptographic keys are the foundation of digital trust. Yet as enterprises expand into hybrid and multicloud environments, key management becomes increasingly fragmented. They are distributed across different platforms, services, and environments — each with its own management tools, interfaces, and processes.

Many enterprises still rely on command-line tools, isolated APIs, or vendor-specific services to manage key lifecycles. This approach increases operational complexity, limits visibility into key usage, and makes it difficult to enforce consistent policies across environments. At the same time, regulatory frameworks such as PCI DSS, GDPR, and financial industry standards require strict control over cryptographic assets, clear separation of duties, and full auditability.

As key volumes scale into the millions and infrastructures become more dynamic, organizations need more than just secure storage. They need a solution that combines HSM-level security with usability, transparency, and centralized governance — without adding infrastructure complexity.

Solution

CyberVault KMS (Key Management System) is a centralized, browser-based platform for managing the complete lifecycle of cryptographic keys across Primus CyberVault HSM and Securosys CloudHSM deployments.

It combines key governance, certificate management, policy enforcement, audit logging, and multi-approval workflows within a single, hardware-backed environment. All keys are generated and protected inside FIPS 140-2 Level 3 (140-3 in certification) and Common Criteria EAL4+ certified HSMs, ensuring that every key remains protected by a certified hardware root of trust.

Through its integrated REST interface, KMIP Server (1.0–3.0), and standard application APIs such as PKCS#11, JCE, and MS-CNG, CyberVault KMS enables centralized key lifecycle management for databases, storage and backup systems, disk and volume encryption, cloud BYOK/HYOK strategies, container platforms, virtualization environments, and enterprise applications.

Whether securing Transparent Database Encryption (TDE), integrating KMIP-compliant storage, or enforcing governance across multicloud deployments, CyberVault KMS provides a unified, scalable, and fully auditable key management platform.

Explore the detailed use cases below to see how CyberVault KMS supports each deployment scenario.
