SaaS in 60 - Customer Managed Keys - Phase 2

Oct 17, 2023

This week we have released the next phase of our Customer Managed Keys security offering. Last year, we gave customers complete control over data encryption in their Qlik Cloud Tenant by leveraging their own encryption keys provided by the AWS Key Management Service. In Phase 2 you can now convert an existing in-use Qlik Cloud Tenant, from Qlik’s Internal KMS to AWS KMS and back if needed. You can also convert a tenant from one AWS KMS Key to another AWS KMS Key to support key rotation, or effectively, a complete re-encryption. To support our OEM and larger enterprise customers, we are also enabling the CMK automation life-cycle with a set of Public APIs so developers can manage keys using their own applications. Already complimenting this are Amazon KMS and Qlik Cloud Operations connectors that are available in Qlik Application Automation.
