Please Note:

Managing Azure Keys

This section describes how to manage Azure keys on CCKM. Before proceeding, you must have an Azure key vault added to the CCKM. Refer to Managing Azure Vaults for details.

Adding Azure Keys

CCKM provides two methods to add Azure keys:

Creating/Uploading New Key Material

To add an Azure key by creating/uploading new key material:

  1. Open the Cloud Key Manager application.

  2. In the left pane, click Cloud Keys > Azure.

  3. Click Add Key. The Select Material Origin screen of the Add Azure Key wizard is displayed.

  4. Under Select Method, select Create/Upload New Key Material. The Select Source section appears. Depending on your requirements, select from the following:

Uploading CipherTrust (External) Key Material

Upload the key material of an external CipherTrust Manager key using the CipherTrust Manager to configure the source key.

Select Material Origin

  1. Select CipherTrust (External).

  2. Click Next. The Configure Source Key screen is displayed.

Configure CipherTrust (External) Key

  1. Select Domain from the drop-down list.

  2. Enter a Key Name.

  3. Select the Key Size from the available options. The supported sizes are 2048, 3072, and 4096.

  1. Click Next.

Configure Destination (Azure) Key

  1. Enter a user-friendly alias as the Azure Key Name. This helps uniquely identify a key. By default, the Key Name specified on the previous screen is populated.

  2. Select the desired Vault from the drop-down list. The list shows the available Azure key vaults with their types specified in parenthesis. The Azure key vault types are Standard, Premium, and ManagedHSM.

  3. Select the Key Type.

    • For a standard vault, the key type is RSA.

    • For vaults inside an Azure Managed HSM pool, the key type is RSA HSM.

    • For a premium vault, the key type can be RSA or RSA HSM.

  4. (Optional) Set the key activation and expiration dates.

    • Select the Set Activation Date check box and from the on-screen calendar, select the date and time to activate the key.

    • Select the Set Expiration Date check box and from the on-screen calendar, select the key expiration date and time.

  5. (Optional) Select the Enable Key check box.

  6. (Optional, applicable to premium Azure vaults and vaults stored in an Azure Managed HSM pool) Select the Exportable check box to enable Confidential Computing.

    When you select Exportable, the Release Policy text box is displayed. In this text box, specify or paste the release policy in the JSON format. A release policy specifies the policy rules under which the key can be exported. The release policy must be specified when creating the first version of an exportable key.

    A sample release policy is displayed below.

    {
    "anyOf": [
        {
