Introducing Single-tenant Cloud HSM to support more data encryption control

Organizations that handle sensitive data in highly-regulated sectors often face a difficult choice: Build and manage physical hardware to meet strict compliance needs, or use cloud services that might not offer the specific level of isolation they require. 

These organizations, often in financial services, defense, healthcare, insurance, and government, require a key management service to provide cryptographic assurances that no one else — including their cloud provider — can access their keys. The key management service also needs to be highly available and scalable to ensure that protected sensitive data is accessible by business critical applications without disruption.

To help meet these rigorous standards without taking on the burden of physical hardware management, we are introducing Single-tenant Cloud HSM, a new service that provides a dedicated, highly-available cluster of hardware security module (HSM) partitions where you retain full control over your cryptographic keys.

Single-tenant Cloud HSM is generally available today in the ...
