    Cloud-native KMS scales instantly to meet enterprise demand without infrastructure overhead.

Features:

  • Automated Key Lifecycle Management
    Create, rotate, expire, and revoke keys automatically to maintain compliance and reduce manual risk.
  • Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) & Key Import
    Generate and manage your own keys or import existing ones to retain full control.
  • Data Encryption Services (KMIP & TDE Support)
    Easily integrate with database and disk encryption systems via KMIP and TDE protocols.
  • Compliance & Audit-Ready Controls
    Full audit trails, policy enforcement, and reporting to simplify passing audits like PCI DSS, GDPR, and HIPAA.

Traditional Key Management Software vs. Akeyless

Feature
Akeyless Key Management
Traditional / Legacy KMS
Multi-Cloud & Vendor Lock-In
One SaaS platform to manage keys across AWS, Azure, GCP, and on-prem. No lock-in.
Each cloud has its own KMS. No unified control plane. Forces vendor lock-in.
Operational Overhead
Vaultless SaaS. Lightweight gateways with no infrastructure to maintain.
Requires managing vaults, HSMs, or separate deployments per environment.
Scalability & Availability
Elastic, multi-region SaaS with built-in high availability.
Scaling across regions or clouds is complex and expensive.
Automation & Rotation
Automated key rotation, tokenization, and short-lived access across environments.
Key rotation and lifecycle management often manual or limited to one cloud.
Security & Control
Zero-knowledge with Distributed Fragment Cryptography — only you control your keys.
Provider or operator may have some level of access to keys.
