Managing Oracle Keys
This section describes how to manage Oracle keys on CCKM. Before proceeding, you must have an Oracle vault added to the CCKM. Refer to Managing Oracle Vaults for details.
Key Creation Methods and Sources
Methods to create Oracle keys using CCKM are:
Creating/Uploading New Key Material: Add key material by creating and uploading new source key or creating new native key. The key sources can be:
CipherTrust (Local): A new key is first created on the CipherTrust Manager. Then, this key material is uploaded to the Oracle cloud to create a new Oracle key. As the key material is uploaded from the CipherTrust Manager, the key origin is
CCKM
.Oracle (Native): A new key is directly created on Oracle cloud using a native Oracle application. The key origin is
NATIVE
.Vormetric DSM: A new DSM key is first created on the CipherTrust Manager. Then, this key material is uploaded to Oracle cloud to create a new Oracle key. As the key material is uploaded from the CipherTrust Manager, the key origin is
CCKM
.Luna HSM: A new Luna HSM key is first created on the CipherTrust Manager. Then, this key material is uploaded to Oracle cloud to create a new Oracle key. As the key material is uploaded from the CipherTrust Manager, the key origin is
CCKM
.Note
CCKM doesn't support FM-enabled Luna HSM as a key source.
Cloning Existing Key Material: Clone key material from an existing key to create a new key. The key sources can be:
CipherTrust (Local): An existing local CipherTrust Manager key is first cloned on the CipherTrust Manager. Then, the cloned key material is uploaded to Oracle cloud to create a new Oracle key. As the key material is uploaded from the CipherTrust Manager, the key origin is
CCKM
.Vormetric DSM: An existing DSM key is first cloned on the CipherTrust Manager. Then, the key material is uploaded to Oracle cloud to create a new Oracle key. As the key material is uploaded from the CipherTrust Manager, the key origin is
CCKM
.Luna HSM: An existing Luna HSM key is first cloned on the CipherTrust Manager. Then, the key material is uploaded to Oracle cloud to create a new Oracle key. As the key material is uploaded from the CipherTrust Manager, the key origin is
CCKM
.Note
CCKM doesn't support FM-enabled Luna HSM as a key source.
