Question 1 of 30
In a scenario where a financial institution is migrating its sensitive customer data to AWS, the security team is evaluating the use of Customer Managed Keys (CMKs) versus AWS Managed Keys (AWS KMS keys) for encryption. They need to ensure compliance with strict regulatory requirements while maintaining operational efficiency. Which of the following considerations should the team prioritize when deciding between these two key management options?
The ability to control key lifecycle management and access policies directly, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
The automatic rotation of keys without any administrative overhead, which may simplify management but limit compliance flexibility.
The reliance on AWS to manage all aspects of key security, which could reduce the institution's control over sensitive data.
The potential for increased costs associated with managing keys independently, which may impact budget constraints.
